The core phrase of the blog post: “no one has done an especially good job explaining why the fediverse is better than centralized solutions”.

Feels to me that it’s all growing pains, we WOULD benefit for a federated auth system instead of an account on every service, and we need lots of bug fixing, i just wish all these social media shitstorms had happened a couple years later and not at this point…

    @modulus @jherazob yes wow.

    I went there and started an account. Didn’t see the appeal at all. Not sure if ever pay for that, especially compared to what’s adorning over here on the fediverse. Hopefully I’m missing something.

    Otherwise, it’s the magic of the protocol: allows FOSS software to scale to large social media levels.
