    Minor asterisk: we need to move away from abusive tech business practices altogether. It’s distressing how people can see the problem and recreate it like with Bluesky. I hope we can build better systems now rather than doing this all over again with european monopolists in 10 years.

        Even with that wildly, non-extreme sounding candor, a democratic-socialist at worst. I used to consider my self a “classic” centrist. Now? I couldn’t tell you tf it meant then.

        Ah, yes. Anti-capitalist software like Yandex and Baidu are so much better…

        What the world needs are federated, distributed systems like www, email, and the fediverse

          Doesn’t matter about the software. You want them to stop being pieces of shits with malicious practices yet capitalism encourages the greater shits to a fight to be the biggest piece of shit on the planet. Case study: The Oil and gas industry might as well call it the parasite thats in everything including you right now.
