Honestly seeing all the corpos ruining the platforms that are what they are because millions of people contributed to them. Youtube, Reddit, Twitter, etc. give so much power to their owners yet they don’t realize it past their next dollar. I think internet should have always been a fediverse instead of what it has become.
Unfortunate and sad. I’m glad fediverse is a thing and getting traction now. It was hard for me to think how one can compete with the giants of the internet and it was evident that smaller organisations don’t stand a chance but thousands of people and small orgs hosting manageable instances that talk to each other is an amazing idea. I hope the fediverse becomes the mainstream way of experiencing the internet.
