They will take everything and shit on it.
What’s the point in being here if the corporations are coming here?
We'll probably have to move to a new internet. Dibs on calling it the "Freediverse".
Before, in the olden times, the internet was just a bunch of random websites and forums and IRC AND USEnet.
Now it’s, “Where SHOULD I GO to be seen others and be validated?!?!”
I sound old. And I am. But,
Do you people want others on fedi or not? Jesus Christ.
Devs: make thing
Others: use thing
You: stop it!
I just thought the fediverse was going to be free of corporate/advertising/tracking shit-show.
If it isn’t going to be free of corporate bullshit why be here instead of Instagram or Twitter or Facebook?
What is the difference? None.
I used to care. But now? I don’t care where people go on the internet. Why be invested in fediverse if the fediverse is just another FaceBook?
For me its not about corporate/non-corporate. I think it would already hugely improve the situation if social networking wouldn't be controlled by one monopoly.
It's the same with E-Mail and RSS. It's working fine because there is no monopoly.
