Just as the capitalists and corpo’s like it.

If it’s censored by the government, it’d fall under use-case #2.

Well, clearly you are, or you wouldn’t suggest that most people should stay on (what I think we both agree to be) an inferiror platform that affords them fewer freedoms.

If you’re worried that somehow that would bring unwanted attention or a bad crowd, you can always sequester yourself in a more niche server. That’s the whole point of this federated system to begin with - giving us more control of our digital presence.

Just make your own invite-only server if you’re so worried about it. Digital freedom should be for everyone, not just a few antisocial nerds.

A lot of people would rather sit around and tear down the progress being made around them for being imperfect, than pitch in to help change things for the better.

Why release this? Because they’re building their own ecosystem. They’re trying to build an alternative to the big players, which means they need to have an alternative to all their major products. Maps and YouTube are probably off the table for now, just because of the sheer scale needed for those, but something like this is achievable.

Is Aegis better? Maybe, but that’s not really the point, it’s part of a family of apps.

It’s an antisocial surveillance system for antisocial people, and creates a(n even more) antagonistic relationship between men and women.

Dating apps have been a disaster for dating, and this is perhaps the worst among them.

They’re still going after books too. Any and all media, speech, any kind of communication, which is free from their clawing grasp.

Felt pretty good about that one, eh?

Being a monopoly does that, yeah.

Oh, yeah, that makes sense. I kinda assumed they already supported it, like YouTube Shorts adopting the vertical format for shorts after Ticktock blew up.

This shit’s just sad. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.
