PSA:
tons of VC money and hype mongering mainstream media shilling only gets you a short term victory
long term victories are harder, more bitter, and in the end the guys who fought them are remembered while the 5 thousand VC funded startups that didn't focus on building a neutral protocol are forgotten
Names like QNX, Compuserve, AOL, where are they now? almost nowhere, because they were hostile to open standards
and requiring a weak 2fa to sign up to the protocol is a hard pass for me, i've already been victim of more than a few KYC leaks over the years and account hijacks, more than i ever wanted to suffer
definitely not going back to that shit, twitter was the last place i was willing to go, as a last ditch effort after long ago abandoning endless advertisements on facebook
even today, with google's monopoly, i am not constantly assaulted with advertising to use email
why should social be any different
instant turn off if the protocol is gonna try and push me to buy some new hot token shit NFT bored monkey bullshit, at all, at all
i can't even stand it when i hear people who claim to know about computer science and infosec praising stupid fluffy bunny bullshit
it's fartcaster, and woo-cast... not buying it, idgaf it will be forgotten before 2026
