Conversation

I've been given links to several comment chains which have simultaneously been full of far left and right demagoging and conspiracy theory. The beauty of the fediverse is that my view of the world didn't have that. When I went to them I could see them but my world's view didn't have it. This is because of the nature of how the fediverse works. Specifically:

• Federation isn't all-on-all
• We don't have a click/engagement goosing algorithm shoveling the content in our faces
• Users and server admins have powerful moderation tools

Ask me again why I prefer a decentralized, open source, open data, self hostable social network ecosystem over the walled gardens, new and old, that the SV VCs keep trying to lock us into. It isn't perfect but is improving. #fediverse #BigTech #SocialMedia
