Like, I don't know. Social media can and should be a preference, right? Except for a few things:
1) Network effects like Metcalfe's Law mean that it's not just *my* preference, it's a *collective* preference that drives my day-to-day.
2) Centralized ownership exacerbates and amplifies those network effects.
3) Centralized governance exacerbates and amplifies any missteps to have extreme consequences.
All of the above is even more true going into 2025 and a second Trump administration.
