Why are people so interested in mass adoption of things like fediverse? - eviltoast

Don’t get me wrong I’m a big fan but it seems like the fediverse could theoretically exist with like 5 users whereas a commercial company needs users for revenue. It feels like we are using the masters tools to try to destroy the masters house

    Because more content, better tools, more platforms, and more development. Also if it’s mainstream, you can talk about decentralization in a normal conversation without sounding like a turbo nerd.

      Interesting take. Yeah for some reason the word “federation” is scary even tho it’s popularized as fuck in pop culture 🤷‍♀️
