With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

    As much as I love Lemmy I don’t see it going mainstream :/
    It’s too weird for the general user

      Yeah I agree. Arguably reddit isn’t even mainstream, and it is exponentially larger than Lemmy now and will remain so for the foreseeable future.

      I’m really loving Lemmy, but it is not even remotely a factor if we are having a conversation about things that are mainstream enough to reflect popular opinion.

        I’m sorry, I don’t know if “general user” means what I think it means. English is not my first language.

        What I meant was that most people who use the internet and social media on a regular basis aren’t exactly nerdy/tech-savvy. So as soon as you start talking to them about federated instances and whatnot, they lose interest.
