Audience is college students + 1 professor

2-3 minutes max (it is an elevator pitch) so can’t go into technicalities, nor do I wish to. Will focus on the main problem it solves.

Edit: I successfully presented, thanks everyone

    You know how if your email app stops working you can just install another one and still communicate with anyone else with an email address? The fediverse is like that except it’s not email it’s twitter and reddit and YouTube all rolled into one. So if twitter was part of the fediverse when Musk bought it and destroyed it you could move to another server with a better moderation policy and pick up where you left off.

      Quite on point! But I would get rid of the “all rolled in one” because they’d get the impression it’s one app that can do everything.

      Something like: “Some parts are like Reddit, others like Twitter or YouTube. And they can all talk to each other.”

        Not likely, I think. Hosting text and images is far less expensive than high quality video to compete with YouTube or others.

          True, I mean, I suppose the more lemmy matures the more funding and feature we may see, got to remember that Lemmy is still a growing platform
