I don’t know if you guys have read about it, but apparently about 140 years ago (sometime in early 2020s) there was a social network with a very similar name. I think it was called Readedit, or something. They were the biggest platform of that time with billions of users, and then suddenly the site ceo went crazy and started blackmailing people to pay for his api, or he would ‘docks’ all the users. Everybody revolted, and created Lemmy. Crazy how lemmy wants to do the same thing now. I’m getting sick and tired of these federated instances hoarding all the control. I think it’s time to explore a centralized service like this reddit thing.
I think a centralized service run by a single person or company with a good set of morals and an interest in furnishing an IPO so that they can be checked by their user base is the way to go. I’m sick of these federated instances stripping my rights away from me. It is time for a change!
Yeah, history has shown time and time again, that giving people power is a bad idea. Remember the Avocado War in 2090s? Corporations had to put an end to that senseless war. It’s always good to concentrate power and wealth in the hands of a select few people and corporations. Hopefully that happens again in my lifetime.

Fucking thank you. I so agree,
