  • This us exactly the threat. They'll start setting standards that other instances will be pressured to follow. Those standards will be ways to control the fediverse and make it a propietary data-gathering and sales/advertising platform just like everything else.

  • I don't believe in a soul that's separate from the body, or that lives on afterward. But the way that "inanimate" matter can spin up thoughts and feelings and a consistent personal experience that can last for decades... It's almost fair to call that thing a soul. It's fair to talk about nurturing your soul and growing a soul.

    If I were Reddit or Facebook I would divide and conquer the Fediverse

    The only threat to this burgeoning community is the same old divide & collapse nonsense that separates citizens under their overlords everywhere.

    I would create accounts and start calling to defederate instances which allow non-polite (or politically incorrect or otherwise offensive) communities.

    We didn't just survive the trolls on reddit. We thrived amongst them. We can handle them. We can block them.

    I want curatorial tools to curate my own feed. I absolutely 100% do NOT want any admins telling me what I can't read. And going to another instance is no solution if that instance is blocked.

    I don't want to be on a purely polite ecosystem, or a purely right-wing-idiot ecosystem. I want access to everybody, and the tools to curate that experience.

    The trolls do NOT have the power to take us down. But the admins definitely do.

    Welcome to the Defediverse.
