In any case, neither of the following initiatives raised my hopes much.
- Bluesky/ATProto is still fundamentally broken (https://mastodon.communick.com/@raphael/113796033637861505)
- Regardless of their for-profit/not-for-profit status: I'm not a fan of Eugen's / Mastodon's "centralized planning" approach and I really don't like how everything they do seems to be in *reaction* to what "evil capitalists" are doing. It's never going to hit mainstream if they keep looking at the rear view mirror.
