Why does everyone keep thinking fedi needs to be the next "big thing."
It's great as it is. It doesn't need to be easier, or more widely adopted.
The internet used to be difficult to use and that acted as a filter to keep the brainless masses away. It's fine. It was BETTER back then.
I'm sick of people acting like they're superior and only they deserve the Internet because they think they're intelligent. The "brainless masses" have just as much right to use the internet as you do. Stop trying to gatekeep the Internet.
Maybe you don't get on Instagram or facebook much, but content for brain-dead people exists, And every time I'm left in shit as nothing is documented but only commented unnecessarily with onomatopoeias and emojis.
