While watching the video I couldn’t stop thinking about the fediverse. It’s basically self-organized social-media. While it is far from perfect it is so much better than the corporate alternative in terms of relevant content. I’m just sad that basically nobody I know personally actually uses the fediverse…

oooOOOooooo look at this one, they know people personally.
Banning means for people to communicate?
Yeah that can’t possibly backfire.
Ban algorithmic social media.
Chasing the algorithm is toxic as fuck.
I feel like an algorithm that sucks you in is what makes a social media platform popular. But an algorithm is part of what makes social media so toxic.
I love that the fediverse doesn’t have ulterior motives, but that might be why it never becomes mainstream. I’d choose smaller crowd over toxic tho.
I might be in favor of banning for-profit social media, or at least regulating it more firmly and protecting consumers, and keeping people like Zuckerberg from using it to influence elections… Somehow. If that’s not practical, I’ll revert to supporting a ban.
Ban advertisements.
