The Menemen!

Tbh money could be the initiative. So many content creators nowadays have platforms beside YouTube. Often even self hosted weboages. If a federated alternative would come up, they could just set up an own server and keep all the earnings.

This would somehow need to get started though. No idea how.

They didn’t capitulate. They never fought. They just did what was the best shot at earning money and gaining ground at the time.

Don’t ever expect moral based behavior in capitalism or geopolitics.

Haha, the chat system? That will be a shitshow. Oh my, thank you [email protected] for creating an alternative. :)

Lol, first I hear about paid subreddits (I am not much on reddit since they ended 3rd party apps). This might actually be the end of reddit, if they are really that dumb.

Please: Everyone read this piece about how “Embrace, extend and destroy” can destroy a federated network. It happened before and they certainly will try to do it with the fediverse.

Big corpos don’t want to take it over, they want it gone.
