   Do you remember when email addresses were a weird, edgy thing to have, and you'd just sign up for one anywhere? That's where we are with the #fediverse right now.

   Where email could have gone is to a distributed model, where every organisation, neighborhood etc had its own mailserver, and people could be name@CommunityGroup.nz or name@suburb.nz. Instead we ended up with most email addresses controlled by a handful of corporations.

   We won't be fooled again, right?
