@Casey Newton writes that Facebook/Meta is now trying to get on the "decentralized network" bandwagon greenwashing too. It is always fascinating to me how very not decentralized all of these things end up looking: from the web3 nonsense, to BlueSky, to now whatever the hell they plan on calling this. "Well you see akshully the technology allows for decentralization therefore it is decentralized even though we control 99.9% of it!" You know what else is a decentralized technology? The world wide web and HTTP. Hopefully the fediverse fix some of our shortcoming before the world buys the techbro bullshit so they can get another successful market monopoly operation. #facebook #meta #SurveillanceCapitalism #decentralization #fediverse https://www.platformer.news/p/meta-is-building-a-decentralized
Meta is building a decentralized, text-based social network
Is this the Twitter replacement we've been waiting for?Casey Newton (Platformer)

•Maybe this is the wrong angle, but I sure feel like I'm spiritually profiting from the Fediverse.
