You are either blissfully ignorant of how corporations work, or you are a corporate shill.
Well they ask the question I don't understand why you would respond with hostility either answer the question or don't comment.
It's just the mob mentality taking hold.
No, its people capable of looking back and recognizing mistakes that were made, and not wanting to repeat them.
Meanwhile a bunch of corporate white knights are screaming about how its unfair to be mean to billion dollar companies, and how they totally wont do the the destructive, exploitative bullshit this time, that they've done every other time in the past.

Congrats, That is the most obvious and intentional wooosh I've ever seen.
and I bet you think you're so clever with it.
I am serious, I don't see how the argument that centralized social media sites like Facebook, reddit or X were "taken over" when they are outright owned by those companies. It's a completely different situation with the fediverse were they literally can't have the same power as they don't hold the keys to everyone's servers, the development of activity pub as a whole or anything of that nature. It's literally a completely different situation.
