Corporations trying to take as much money as possible.

Seems to be just a hit piece. I only care if it does cool things and it’s open source. None of the investor squabbling matter to me.

It’s how you used to buy weed.

Where is it being taught in school? I think Trump and DeSantis banning it being taught in school is just a publicity stunt claiming the woke left is rewriting history.

I’m not sure what the difference with this and NFTs are.

It has some technical differences but it is basically the same. I think the Fediverse is too far ahead for it to ever catch on. I don’t think enough people care about extreme censorship resistance.

I agree with all 3

You wouldn’t download a drone sailboat???

If people are actually interested in decentralised technology to escape abusive corporations then your insults to cryptocurrency users and assumed bad intentions of cryptocurrency users are not very convincing arguments.

Lol, somebody could write an opinion piece like this on decentralised social media and be just as wrong as you. Crypto is happily humming along and for some reason you are bitter that people like to use it.

But they can claim it was done in an open and democratic way.

I find it odd people who want their social media decentralised but are disgusted when money is decentralised.

It is humming along nicely for those that use it. There could be another speculative pump filled with scams, that would be no surprise.

I thought this was an announcement they were moving to the Fediverse.

Thanks for all this info. I’m just planning out what I will use. This gives me a lot to dig into!

Let’s do the Peertube migration.

What is the ZigBee controller? Is the Hue Bridge one? Does the Hue bridge not go on the internet?

We did the Twitter to Mastodon migration. Now we are doing the Reddit to Lemmy/kbin migration. When are we doing the YouTube to Peertube migration?

That is true but they should last for 20 to 30 years. Basically the life of the car. Better to make an informed decision every 20 years than be at the mercy of what is available at that moment.
