@botiplz This old infographic says it all about the state of modern internet, and it stops in 2016. How many websites constitute a half of total internet traffic today? 5? 10?
@shantara@botiplz Just saw the r/startrek post on Reddit, saying they were giving up the protest but started a new Fedi community nevertheless, and the first comment under it is probably the baffling example of why this concentration has happened: people got "Internet lazy" and want everything in one place. While understandable, this has been done the very wrong way: instead of massively using standard tools centralising the content (like RSS), we started to expect to have all on one service.
