The fact that all of the major platforms are changing hands, having to change due to government bans or laws, or from CEOs who force changes people don't like into their platforms.

Then and a bunch of others cropping up trying to take their place.

not that I would mind considering that the entire mainstream internet is now 5 or 6 websites owned by 3 or 4 people and all of them are either fucking awful, have TONS of ads on them or Boost Right Wingers and Bigots while censoring LGBTQ content

Overall, I'm kinda hopeful and Scared about the future of the internet
