@ubi Haha, true! It is 99% impossible to get ASEANs to use the fediverse. We can forget the fediverse, just Threads itself is being ignored even though Instagram is very popular in the region.

It's only Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Plurk, in that particular order. ^_^

The reasons for this are (at least based from experience and observation):
1. Family connections.
2. Fandoms + official accounts of their idols
3. Government accounts.

I am hoping that Threads can make fandoms and those official accounts to create Threads with Fediverse. Theoretically, it can be helpful in getting a huge chunk to move to the Fediverse

(Unfortunately, there is an anti-fandom vocal minority in the Fediverse, who's trying to gatekeep the network. /facepalm)

Another one that's good are government accounts with fediverse enabled.

But, until those happen, those 5 SNS platforms will remain.

As for language, except for the and , English is not an official language in the 8 member Nations (even though English is the official language of the organisation itself). Many can speak English, but it's more natural for them to speak in their local languages.

There are ASEANs in the fediverse network, but in the grand scheme of things… we're still few and a minority.
