The #fediverse is a self-organising network. It cannot be controlled by any one group, trillion dollar company, super-state or any other single entity.
It is a more level playing field than other social networks.
It is not entirely fair and does unfortunately import many problems from outside.
But it can be improved.
And individuals can make a difference.
If you see something you don't like on your timeline you have many options: DM your friends to discuss, block, report, move instance, etc.
