      Heh, it took me a minute to think of a third one after Mastodon and Bluesky.

        This is called the “network effect,” so called after the Murderbot novel of the same name (recommended). It’s what makes social medias, aggregators, and service platform so “sticky.” It’s what makes platform-capitalism work.

        It also makes nice things work too, ofc.
