@echosa i know @gunvolt did a log entry that explains !gnusocial to - i don't know, "outsiders" or "twits" or something? those are horrible attempts but i feel like "types of people who don't know about gnusocial by now" is a concept worthy of some sort of shorthand - but i'm still having a hard time getting the non-fsf/gnu people i know to consider quitter ( #consTwitterThis ?) and i feel like i'm only entitled to, say, three attempts to publicly ask them all to favor #freedom & join the !fediverse in the face of the pre-ostatus status quo. have we a group specifically dedicated to methods to freeing twits from their subjugation? it's much more of a task than it should be! #RIPTwitter #takeBackTheInternet

@nydel Would you think the same term should cover those who use or have used sites such as #Twitter, #Instagram, #Tumblr (that is, those who are in the #Lockiverse) and those who have not?

@nydel I usually just make sure to guide them (usually in physical space) to some interesting stuff to subscribe to, depending on their interest. Some areas aren't covered yet which makes some peoples' interests harder to fulfill, but can also be encouraged to "be the first" to contribute cerrain aspects of the network.
Community building is the best effort to provide !GNUsocial as a usable and meaningful means of communication. To rediscover that awesome "whoa, random people who are NICE"-feeling that was so abundant on the internet just 10-15 years ago.
