   Let's do a little experiment. It's obviously biased by my relative participation in each, but I'm comparing the reach of twitter, facebook, Diaspora, pump, G+, and GNU Social (plus anything that can talk directly to it...that is not via NavierStokes).
   
   Please like this if you see it. Obviously, if you want more people to like it, then you share it, but I'm only going to count likes.

      Another interesting tidbit: Facebook is up to 8 likes but zero comments.

      face is up to 18...but for context, I have 930 "friends" on facebook.

      I don't think these numbers would be as high if Evan hadn't shared, but interesting numbers on pump: https://datamost.com/dw/note/q5om-DZRQbGslG1eVCLo4Q

      Here are the final numbers
      
      GNU Social/Mastodon: 49
      pump.io: 31
      Facebook:26
      Diaspora: 15
      G+: 7
      Twitter: 0
      
      What's interesting is that on Diaspora, pump, and GNU Social, I all got actual comments about how the study was being conducted. I got literally zero comments on twitter or G+. There's all sorts of bias in this, but I have more "friends" on facebook by an order of magnitude and significantly more on twitter than the free platforms. So, it seems like people join the proprietary networks and just don't use them very much.

         The only part of the #Lockiverse where I still have an account is Twitter. I rarely log in there any more (usually just to delete some more posts ... I'm trying to leave just my most recent 10-20 at a time).
