ideally #twitter would be a genuine social commons
and although we're all familiar with the usual tragedy of the commons, we got hit by a new one: the plutocrat edgelord manchild #elonmusk who giggles his way into taking the whole thing over
the problem is #centralization (of money in real life and the tech design)
#mastodon is #decentralization, and an antidote to both problems
let mastodon be the new #socialmedia commons, let it grow to a billion people, and let's work (code, content) to make it the new unbreakable standard

Again, #Centralization is inherently bad, and everything that is a #SingleVendor / #SingleProvider "solution" will inevitably die.
That's why #XMPP & #IRC are alive and kicking whilst #AIM is dead and #ICQ is a #zombie.
#Discord and #Signal will also follow that path that :birdsite: :twitter: is walking ahead...
#Signal #Discord #zombie #icq #aim #IRC #XMPP #SingleProvider #singlevendor #centralization
THE CORE PROBLEM YOU BOTH ( @fla & @Seirdy ) ARE IGNORING IS #CENTRALIZATION!
Because it's a #SingleVendor / #SingleProvider solution they'll be naturally subject to state intervention aka. being forced to integrate #Govware #Backdoors under the threat of getting their shit forcibly unplugged.
The people that work at @signalapp have names and adresses the state knows, and thus they'll be subject to threats by the state.

#Cryptocurrency #Decentralization #ExchangeVolumes #Centralization #Competition I'm not surprised to see the decline in spot trading volumes on decentralized crypto exchanges. However, I'm concerned that traditional financial firms may be adding to the competitive challenges in the space.

That's TCP/IP. What you are describing is TCP/IP. You fucking smooth-brained MBA trash have just invented centralized TCP/IP with a side of rent extraction.

#Centralization is bad. The current massive #fail-ure of #Twitter is the best example. The infamous #FailWhale has returned and is bigger than ever.
And to be honest, I don't shed a single tear for #Twitter. It was always a questionable proprietary site before #ElonMusk, but under his rule it became much, much worse. #Proprietary software gives a small owner class unjust power over the many.
Let's embrace #decentralizaion and #FreeSoftware instead.

I konw why one would want that, but it would kinda brick it.
There's a reason why decentralized systems like #eMail, #XMPP & :activitypub: work on #DenyListing instead of #AllowListing, as this would inherently result in #centralization to an oligopol, something we see #iEmail like #Gmail, #YahooMail and #Microsoft #Outlook attempt.
Also do you really expect instance admins to vet every single self-hosted instance?
Cuz that won't work for a lot of people.
