We’ll be fine as long as there isn’t corporate or financial interests. More humans of all kinds is fine. Making Mastadon and Lemmy unfriendly place for “profit”, (marketing and advertising) means that greed won’t drive people’s behaviour. Greed for clout is still greed.
I wouldn’t say its unpopular, but I do agree its a bit ignorant but not in the probably negative way you mean.
I think its your acceptance that its fundamental that “Business MUST profit and we MUST suffer to allow them to profit”
You’re making a huge leap that we need to suffer through all of the internet getting worse just because a corporation wants to profit. Fuck Google, Fuck Reddit, fuck all businesses that fail. Who cares? We owe them nothing.
