    if the problem is that major platforms are centralized, opaque, and controlled by corporations, why would the solution be yet another centralized platform controlled by a corporation?

    Because people are brainwashed into only trusting billionaires, corporations, brand names, and consumer packaged goods to solve all our problems.

      In this case, I think it’s target user isn’t looking to get out from under the billionaires and corpos, just the American billionaires and corpos. That’s who eyou is designed to appeal to.

      The tiny number of people who are anti billionaire and corpos-run social media regardless of nationality already have our very tiny corner carved out.
