Interesting and I'd say you're right. If you were to see a mass adoption of the fediverse (such as Twitter imploding and mastadon becoming the replacement) there would be an immediate attempt by the big tech players to gain control of it in some way. And this is exactly how they would try to do it.

I used reddit is fun but it's the same story. Literally 15 years using that website daily.
So far this seems the closest to what I was getting through reddit. After these fools doubled down I'm eager to find a new place to get the same basic functionality. We will see if this is it or not.
Its nice to have a place where the admins and developers aren't trying to scheme and manipulate the community to get a big payout. Thanks for all that you guys do. Curating this community is no doubt selfless hard work but we need a place like this free from the influence or potential take over by bad actors and malignant narcissists.
