Now that PewDiePie is on his Linux/engineering arc, could he help boost the Fediverse?

Pewds has been dabbling more in Linux and engineering content lately, and considering he's essentially retired and doesn’t rely on YouTube ad revenue anymore, wouldn’t it be amazing if he also started posting his videos on PeerTube in parallel?
He can definitely afford to support decentralized platforms and wouldn’t be held back by monetization concerns. With his reach, even just mirroring his content to PeerTube could bring massive attention to the Fediverse. Do you think he'd ever consider it?

I haven't ever followed it. Do we know if him adopting Linux have an effect on his audience?

Idk about his audience, or if it’s because of my preaching, lots of my tech savvy students are making the switch to Linux or are at least gnucurious.

I hope not. I hope that lemmy doesn’t grow any heavier than it is growing right now. The content is good, it’s enough, most threads have good comments. I don’t want this to become another Reddit. Lemmy is really good as is.

People singlehandedly supporting communities about popular topics might disagree

God bless those people. I hope for more like minded individuals to help them out, but I still would personally not wish for lemmy to have thousands of votes and comments per post. Quality over quantity for me personally.

We're far away from thousands of votes and comments per post, don't worry.
!fedigrow@lemm.ee is full of people trying to build communities about popular topics, only to be shouting into the void

The issue is also partially that of those migrating to Linux from windows, in that they try to match their experience, ignoring all the other features they now have acquired. Communities will come organically, when there’s enough people to warrant them. Lots of tech communities as Lemmy users are usually tech affine.
It’s fine if there is not a subreddit clone for everything here yet. Maybe it will come, maybe it won’t.

Same. Lemmy reminds me of how Reddit used to be ages ago. Discussions are actually elaborate and thoughtful. The quality of content is so much better. I fear if Lemmy gets too big the quality of content will decline

How long has “PewDiePie”’s linux thing been going.
I had a friend switch to linux about two years ago for no reason. And that friend is obsessed with pewdiepie. I hadn’t made the connection.

How is the latter supposed to happen without the former? Like it or not, many of us are here solely because Reddit went to shit with their extreme monetization. Lemmy is still a really small community and absolutely NEEDS larger adoption in order to remain a viable option

This 100%, honestly what lemmy/mbin needs is a clean up of dead communities. That were created and abandoned during the reddit api exodus. As well as the active communities that are just a bot posting content from reddit and nothing else.

He can host his own instance, then you're free to block it.

Problem is a lot of people don't remember early reddit it was the same way lots of tech folks then grew organic from there.

A few weeks ago, so Pewds probably wasn't it.

I absolutely will. That guy is toxic af and I'm surprised people here support him, especially given the extreme left leaning nature of Lemmy.

PewDiePie built his fame and fortune on a centralized platform.
I am not certain whether he will see the benefit of a decentralized future beyond dollar signs.
Happy to be proven wrong.
