The fediverse is empowering users like never before, but concerns persist

Why does everyone keep thinking fedi needs to be the next "big thing."

It's great as it is. It doesn't need to be easier, or more widely adopted.

The internet used to be difficult to use and that acted as a filter to keep the brainless masses away. It's fine. It was BETTER back then.

Oh no! Not concerns! If only there was an open source, decentralized platform that had an active community that could address said concerns if they become an issue.

Concerns persist? Oh no.

Tbh I would rather browse flickr or dpreview when that was a thing than to jump on instagram. Never been on it - but seeing the stuff an ex would post and others I always found it offputting. I am sure it had good pictures on it at one point, but that was so long ago I never had an opportunity to experience it. I assume it was good before facebook bought them.

Fuck the US and fuck all its glowing agencies
