yeah, maybe, it will just keep staying under the radar and at some point someone will have to spend some cash to keep the lights on.

no, it won’t, nor will xitter of facebook. it’s delusional to think multi-billion-dollar-platforms backed by big money, the content industry and several clandestine consortiums will cease operation because a single digit percentage of users decided that some hobbyist internet platforms held together by tape and a hail marry are the future. we’ll be lucky if places like this are still around in a few years.

just wait 5 years, the fediverse will either be dead or swallowed up by meta. the only two things it has to go for it is the decentralized nature and the absence of open advertisements.

don’t forget the absence of easy to install addons! such a delight!

@grafcube it’s very important to push back against google’s browser hegenomy just like we did back in the day with microsoft because now it’s not just about one company controllin the software to access the majority of the web but the privacy of it.

impossible people, sponsored content, ads and your data on a buffet - it was long overdue, but i’m glad it’s finally gaining momentum.
