At the moment the internet is flawed, do you think the fediverse is the solution?

Thanks for this insightful post. I agree that the fediverse feels different and that’s ok. It’s exciting to get the chance to build something new and be a part of it starting.

yeah I definetly agree. specifically because of the lack of algorithms or profit motives it won't be " addictive " nor as easy as traditional social media to find what I'm most likely to engage in. but it also means ragebait is less likely to be pushed to me, and for that, its actually quite fine...

im quite sick of the "few big websites" that the internet has become. I miss when there were a greater variety of forums, blogs and places to hang out, only supported through people's passions. and it seems to me federation goes back to those old times.
