Precisely. I've stopped being sore over corp social media, because there's no point: it's never going to change. Before I was on the fedi, I mostly lurked and consumed, but in here I feel like I'm putting down real roots and contributing to a living culture.
I don't know what the future of the internet is, but I know the bad path is further corporate capture and centralisation. If it's going to be something I want to participate in, it's going to be those parts which are decentralised.
PS this is my phone account with Sync so I can't post from this one yet.
