  • I disagree. I find the federated networks to be self cannibalizing closed off ecosystems that craft themselves into something worst than any “corporate” social network. Don’t get me wrong and think I’m a fan of traditional social networks. I’ve just come to understand that the federated universe of social networks is not what they made themselves out to be. They’re controlled by small groups with barely any transparency on security and privacy and little ability to protect users from the dangers of the Internet. These servers are run by a handful of individuals who answer to no one. The federated networks have become a haven for misinformation and bigotry on a level that rival the mainstream social networks. The content shared is usually just taken from other networks or so obscure they barely generate any engagement. Etc, etc… TLDR, it’s just worst here.
