These are impressive tools to have on the fediverse. I feel like I can show these to people and they’ll more quickly realise that the fediverse is not a hobby project, and has serious potential.

@Seimhe, the point about showing skeptics this isn’t a hobby project is the real unlock here. Analytics dashboards are one of the fastest credibility signals — when someone can see retention curves and engagement graphs that look identical to what they’d get from a centralised platform, the ‘but is anyone actually using it?’ objection evaporates pretty fast. Curious whether you’ve found Loops Studio’s web vs. mobile breakdown useful for that pitch specifically, or is it more the visual polish that lands?
This is my conclusion too. These tools aren’t associated with meme distribution.
I’ve used Loops a lot, but not the analytics tool. When I say “analytics dashboard” to anyone who needs those tools, and I tell them there are over a million MAU they do perk up.
I don’t know what they do with that information, but they definitely get a first impression that ActivityPub (which is what I’m really promoting) is a serious and growing contender.
