I’m here because it’s eventually going to be the better alternative.

FOSS by its nature, will keep on improving. And proprietary bloatware, by its nature, will only gonna get worse.

    I really do believe the fediverse is the future. We’ve gone from: Traditional Forums, to the early days of twitter/reddit “the golden days” to present day money driven social media platforms. I really do believe the future is a platform like the fediverse where ultimately. It sounds far more sustainable.

    It’s nice to have multiple communities not just one dominant commuity like reddit has. It means that those who don’t agree with a community that might be power abusing can find an alternate one on a different instance.

    I think communities could have a responsibility to go cross-instance and work with other similar communities so the user can sub to multiple ones and still get as much content as they would on reddit. It really does feel like the future of the internet. I would really like one that takes away the power from big business. Internet always felt wonderful in it’s hayday being untouched by corporations. I would really like to restore and preserve that feeling but those days may well be over if things don’t change.
