@nolan @caelan @Nezchan @Gargron @confusedcharlot I feel like it's a mix of FOMO and laziness that doesn't allow people to move away from the behemoths. I think we could really benefit from realising that the Internet has reached a kind of "post scarcity" state in which, even if you leave a big chunk of whatever you are interested in or connected with out, you can still have more than enough somewhere else.

@confusedcharlot @Gargron @Nezchan @caelan @nolan I have experienced that with music: I decided that I want to support people who work for the commons, so I pretty much stopped getting music that does not have some sort of free culture license. I then figured out I still have plenty to choose from for my radio shows - more than I can deal with actually.
