    Already moved to Mastodon for the most part when Twitter went to shit, now I’m on Lemmy too. Still have my Reddit and Twitter accounts, but at least with Twitter I barely go there anymore. If they kill off old.reddit I’m out.

    That would be nice, but I dont think it is realistic. Small communities can share a culture, and people can treat each other humanely. Once too many people are there it all goes down hill.

      I think the meaning is that humanity will connect again and the location of that reconnection is the fediverse.

        Capitalistic forces undermine real tools for human connection. They’re sole focus is to extract value, and that is incongruent with a healthy network. Fediverse and other p2p tech will definitely be the foundation for a future web.

      federated things have been around for awhile (ie, XMPP and jabber - facebook used to used it for their chat!) but recently there’s been a large uptick in usage
