I'm just excited the internet is in part going back to its non corporate backed roots with Lemmy mastodon and the like. The internet started that way, and thanks to the enshitification it will hopefully slowly revert back to it

The idea that corporations were involved in social media was insane looking back. The results were exactly what one would have anticipated

Do we have a Fediverse equivalent of Facebook yet..?

Facebook does a lot of things. Depends on what exactly you're looking for. Facebook allows you to follow friends and organizations (= Mastodon), it also allows you to participate in groups (= Lemmy), and then it has a few other features too.
