Fediverse

   TODO

   Fediverse is partly nice, employing a few cool ideas, but also quite
   [1]shitty -- it may be a relief, a less harmful alternative to proprietary
   social media, but it's definitely not the way of [2]good technology. With
   time it will very likely keep degenerating into more and more harmful
   thing, just like [3]Wikipedia and similar big projects riding on the
   "FOSS" brand. The following is a list of some reasons why Fediverse sucks
   (keep in mind that some of them are not inherent but rather established
   properties of the network):

     * It is greatly [4]bloated, mostly relying on [5]modern browsers with
       [6]JavaScript and [7]encryption, multiple complex [8]protocols, hugely
       complicated [9]backends etc.
     * It is [10]capitalist software, trying to mimic capitalist ways just
       with a "[11]FOSS sticker" on it, they just copy [12]twitter,
       [13]Facebook and [14]reddit closely, keeping it based on content
       consumerism, like whoring, friend hoarding, scrolling addiction etc.
       -- a free license doesn't fix this. Fediverse doesn't care about
       actual freedom but rather about a "freedom" label, aiming more for
       getting big rather than getting actually good. A truly good network
       would just be based on a completely different set of ideas, see e.g.
       [15]gopher.
     * It embraces [16]censorship (see e.g. [17]fediblock) and is greatly
       infected with [18]pseudoleftist ideology. While decentralization
       prevents hardcore global blocks, most network instances just block the
       minority of instances that allow [19]free speech, creating isolated
       islands, most of which have speech filters etc. Furthermore people
       using these networks are for the greatest part [20]soyboys,
       [21]soydevs and [22]SJWs circlejerking their posts, blocking everyone
       else AND the software projects themselves are made by the same people,
       employing [23]codes of censorship etc.
     * It is developed mostly by incompetent people -- as said, the users and
       developers are mainstreamers, mostly 16 year old trans zoomers who
       just learned about computers and are just bashing together stuff in
       JavaScript, they have no real plan or vision, neither do they know
       anything about good technology design. The result looks accordingly.
