Meta’s adoption of ActivityPub could expose a lot more people to the power, and perils, of decentralized social networks..

"While the jury is still out on whether Meta’s new Threads will be a Twitter killer"

Excuse me while I laugh out loud at that line. Yes because the best options people have are a reckless out of touch sycophant or a data farming sycophant. What wonderous choices...

Yes, Decentralization is the future of social media. Because we're fucking tired of all of these platforms, controlled by control freaks with lots of money and a very skewed perception on how it sees their audiences per platform. This isn't a trend. This is a movement. A movement to escape from these decaying platforms. It's not really that hard to see.

And quite frankly, Mark of all people, should stay the fuck away from the idea of decentralization. When he is part of the problem that has lead to us to go to the fediverse route. What does he know and understand with the fediverse, when he's the catalyst as to why the fediverse is more on the spotlight than ever? He is the opposite of decentralization, because all that he cares about is more people he can farm data from and sell under the table to manipulate.

Fuck Musk. Fuck Mark. Fuck Spez.
