I wasn’t sure where to post this, but it seems like Tildes is pretty much dead now. This is why decentralized is the only possible good future.
Hopefully all the users move to Lemmy/PieFed/Mbin

It’s always strange to me that software can never be complete or mature, it’s straight from ‘getting new features’ to ‘dead’. Not picking on the comment in OP, the announcement post reads like that too mostly. I get software requires some level of maintenance, but I wish we treated feature-complete as a good thing, something to celebrate.
Anyway, it was also weird to me how Tildes didn’t seize the moment with the Reddit drama a couple years ago. As I recall, they just weren’t trying to be the target of that migration. That was the first time I’d heard of it. Seems a nice place, from all my impressions of it.
Debatable, but video games of old can be considered feature complete software. Or a lot of old software from back then when they have to be sold once with little to no support.
When I left reddit, I asked for accounts on both tildes and kbin. Except tildes was onboarding people in batches, so I’d been active on kbin for like a week before I could create my tildes account, and I just never got momentum over there because of it
There can be security issues though. And I think it sounds like it won’t be growing from here, for social media that means it probably won’t take long to shrink a lot. If the current feature set and UX didn’t attract a huge userbase, then keeping it the same certainly won’t help.
If it was an offline video game or software then it would be different.
Security issues for sure, that’s what I mean to acknowledge by saying it takes some level of maintenance.
But like, the feature set and UX don’t have to keep improving forever, IMO. The draw of something like this should be the community, the humans you interact with.
