@atomicpoet what’s more, I’ve read that they’ve had close working relationship with the core Mastodon team and helped build their first official iOS app:- @atomicpoet Its frustrating that it’s a crypto entity, but “corporate” Mastodon instances are a positive signal IMO. @atomicpoet But also: “Oh the different instances aren’t complicated at all, just pick one that looks right!” 🤪 @atomicpoet I'm just a regular user and this thread scared me a lot. As soon as I can find a job, I'll donate to my instance. It's been 7 weeks since I'm here, and I already don't want to go back to not having this community. @atomicpoet > The Pawoo acquisition marks another milestone of the Mask team towards the building of a decentralized social network and a free, open internet A “free, open internet” of crypto bros. Sounds like a quick refreshing skinny dip in a sewage lagoon. @vk3xem @atomicpoet most of them are broke or will be soon, in the way that scammers are 'broke'. If they don't go to prison they run away with the cash and start another scam. @atomicpoet So it's starting and I feel a bit dejected because it was just a matter of time. The lure of big money for an instance can be too much for an admin to say no. I wrote a long post on this a while back. How similar consolidation happened in Email space (open protocol) & why its harmful to all of us. |
