Ngl, as someone who worked in tech before the rise of social media, I'm here for the demise of platforms like twitter and facebook. Everything is concentrated in the hands of a few billionaires and, we've seen repeatedly what a terrible idea that's been.
@BugbearPancakes Those websites also run a moderation/... model that's inferior to distributed things. In distributed setups, you ~always have at least a passable business relationship (if not a relationship based on trust) with whoever has effective moderation power over you (users with admins, admins with other admins/hosting providers/...). This IMO keeps things more stable over long periods of time by allowing/requiring feedback on such decisions to actually matter.
This is why I'm also concerned about cloudflare being the obvious place to go for ddos protection to.
