While watching the video I couldn't stop thinking about the fediverse. It's basically self-organized social-media. While it is far from perfect it is so much better than the corporate alternative in terms of relevant content. I'm just sad that basically nobody I know personally actually uses the fediverse...

I think the brand of social media that is designed solely for as much engagement as possible should be gone forever. Forum based social sites where moderation can be more tailored to the groups involved and community owned social media needs to come back. People act as if they can't live without the social media we have today but that is just bullshit... we literally did fine with that a decade ago.

I dunno where the revisionists took over but bulletin boards were never considered social media
