The problem isn’t that the fediverse isn’t viable. The problem isn’t that it’s “too complicated.” The problem is that the giants of Silicon Valley have spent 20 years convincing us that anything outside their control isn’t worth our time.

And that’s just not bloody true.

Couldn't have said it better myself

Exactly! That’s how people usually argue against the Fediverse. People have literally been indoctrinated into believing the internet is centralised.

Americans don't understand the politics of proper opposition and dissent

Voting for the other guy ain't it... And it is a lot more than "politics" it is a life style.

Deny the parasite profit and engagement
