I personally don't see the "Eureka!" moment that big tech apparently does in moving EVERYTHING to the cloud when they struggle to design safe and reliable services as is. The whole cloud stuff just kind of says "sure it will be a privacy nightmare rife for exploitation from bad actors, but THINK of the money we could earn from it in the long run!"

If he's spending so much time playing it in person AND online then I do agree the time he's playing vs. spending time with you is alarmingly disproportionate, especially if he is spending some of his leisure at home but opts to play D&D online with friends rather than sparing it to have some quality time with you.

I think a deep discussion with him is in order. But no, you are not in the wrong for wanting him to dedicate some time out of his schedule to you.

Some folks really don't understand they can absolutely get what they want out of the fediverse, they're that accustomed to the limits of the more mainstream options. It's whatever they want it to be. If you're tired of not seeing enough of something, there's nothing stopping you from creating your own instance or a community within a pre-existing instance and rallying others to engage. You're always bound to find someone with a few similar interests around.

It will never grow or change if nobody is willing to directly participate in what they wish to see grow or change.

This reminds me of that Deathsauce person on here. I know them personally and have it on good authority that they're still a huge Savage Garden fan to this day.

A 'democratic organism' where puppet mods are installed because the 'democratically' supported ones won't toll the company line. Uh-huh. Sure, Steve.

Read 'TTS' with exaggerated glitching/stuttering for maximum effect.

Take me back in time to the 2000s when the most scandalous spyware was a purple gorilla virtual assistant telling awful jokes with a TTS voice.

But how many will be active in four to five months from now?

It's a shameful waste of life regardless of who these people were, all because one person didn't want to adhere to the rules. This kind of scenario can apply in and result in tragedy in so many different instances with different types of people. I'd at least hope the other eccentric entrepreneurs learn from this, but I'm not going to expect anything.

Who'da thunk the fediverse was just going to be used as a shield in a petty big tech feud?!

This about sums up the current state of things well.
