Fediverse@lemmy.world•Why Defederating from Facebook/Meta is So Important
61·3 years agowhat you are saying is true if you entirely ignore the power of a majority market share and the demand that puts on small developers.
even if it’s not universal demand, all you need is a slight majority.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Why Defederating from Facebook/Meta is So Important

Technology@beehaw.org•Google is getting a lot worse because of the Reddit blackouts
2·3 years agowish i knew, maybe something with AI?
