The next generation of platforms doesn’t have to make the same mistakes as the previous one.

    A good step towards redemption is moving social media outside of the sphere of corporate influence and into the decentralized hands of individual people and small groups. Projects like Mastodon, Akkoma, Lemmy, Kbin, Friendica, and Pixelfed are making the internet an exciting place to be again. I hope this tide also works against Big Email because corporate influence over who gets to send email to them that does not go to spam and who’s does is arbitrary and there’s no recourse.

    I feel like humanity is what needs redeeming.

      @Tigbitties @MementoMori facts. If it weren’t for social media I wouldn’t have realized how stupid humans are. How easily influenced they by money and tribalism. Social media doesn’t need to change. People do.
