It's definitely Linux, but it's not GNU.
Trump is already working on that!
I agree it woudl be a big ask even if the platforms could support it. I don't precieve anytime that it would even be a good idea to directly encourage such behavior. The #twittermigration and #redditmigration where natural occurences that hit the 'verse hard. I believe they were a net good for ActivityPub and Free Software as a whole, but for many users the hiccups at that time where enough to sour them to "decentralization."
Apparently its from a group called the Insitutie for Network Cultures, which at least looks like its been around since the earliest days of what we used to call decentralized microblogging https://networkcultures.org/geert/2025/01/30/join-global-switch-day-on-february-1st-2025/.
Reminds me a lot of leftists who speak of "when the revolution comes" for decades and never even try to organize their workplace.
What devs would ever consider such a clearly bad idea?
None that have any experience whatsoever. Maybe a college intern with more ideals than smarts.

One of these is not like the other

I'm not sure who is pushing #GlobalSwitchDay probably won't amount to anything, some of these platforms are certainly not ready a massive migration. The #RedditMigration was rough enough on Lemmy, it actually murdered #Kbin; #loops #PeerTube and #Friendica don't have nearly enough well-maintained instances to support any sort of massive migration. And Signal, well its better than WhatsApp, and its mostly Free Software, but it doesn't really align with all of the others that are, or at least intend to be in the case of Loops, federated services based on ActivityPub.
The largest democracy in the world. Democracy is majority rule so unless the majority are firm about not wanting this no reason for the government to prevent it. Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if the majority of Indians are in favor of such things.
Why would you choose to use the Google app?
Is that hyperlink a bad copy/paste or is there some connection there that I'm not understanding?
I can only speak for myself, but I used to love to get home from work and contribute to free software projects I found interesting. Since I got a good paying tech job at a big company, the last thing I want to do is more of the same when I get home. (having kids around the same time probably had an influence too).
If you aren't arguing, are you really on the internet?
similarly shan't became a go-to-word among my clique in high school once we learned it.

This is why I try to watch the movie first, so I can enjoy both of them.
