People just don't get Mastodon. Even, in my case, people with a background in experimental art and political activism. I'm currently involved in endless online discussions about Mastodon vs. Bluesky, and people just don't understand what it's about and why one is preferable to the other. The language of "instances" and "decentralisation" completely confuses them (and it would be much more helpful to use more understandable, jargon-free language such as "globally interconnected community servers"). Everyone thinks that in Mastodon/the Fediverse/a decentralised network you can only communicate and connect with people on your own instance, and doesn't understand that you can also post, read and connect globally across instances. I am afraid that after 25 years the cultural hegemony of internet platforms is irreversible. Mastodon confuses people because it looks like a platform. #mastodon #fediverse #decentralization

My core value is personal #freedom. I’m for #FreeSoftware and dream of a world in which free software is the default basically everywhere. I’m for a free and open #Internet, against #censorship and intellectual monopolies. #Decentralization is better than centralization. I hate #hierarchies of #power. ✊ I have a low tolerance for #bullshit and zero tolerance for anti-intellectualism. Critical thinking is important to get things done. If you find bullshit in my posts, tell me. 💩
