EDM subs on lemmy are generally in a pretty poor state (progressive / trance / D&B). I occasionally contribute via another account, but it feels like there just isn’t a critical mass yet.
Yeh this is true. I try to post occasionally on DnB as well but my wheel house is dubstep and so I mainly stick with that.
I just carry on in the hopes that as more people join Lemmy that may be interested in it, hopefully they will find my community with a good, solid history of posts rather than just dead air. Hopefully as that happens more contributors will start popping up but until then I’ll keep on keeping on :D
A lot of the larger dubstep community still use shit like Facebook and Instagram so they obviously arent the kinds of people that prioritise things like privacy and decentralisation so I expect it will be a long wait xD
Yeah, I am done with commercial social networks. Perhaps this a bit presumptuous of me, but I think in the (distant? hopefully not too distant?) future, current social networks will be seen as excess of the early information age.
I don’t recruit people to the fediverse, but I’ve described it in abstract terms (and realistic terms - it’s mostly tech nerds) to some close friends/family members and they actually agreed that the concept made a lot of sense.
The ones who listen to EDM were even like “wow, this is actually like an underground non-commercial social network that goes against the grain and focuses on what matters”. That being said, for an underground community/movement, the EDM scene is super tied into mainstream social media.
Likewise here, I’ll mention it and give people a brief overview of what it is but I dont really push or recruit people for it. If they come that is great but putting on pressure won’t make people want to jump over.
I agree with your sentiment there though, I’m all for the colapse of social networks as they are right now. What ever happened to the late 90s / early 00s mindset of dont trust anyone or put any personal information online that I was taught as a kid!? It baffles me how people are so willing to let the world know so much about themselves but I digress.

I will join !dubstep@lemmy.dbzer0.com and occasionally post too.
