   My theory is that the #fediverse has become a victim of its own success. It's taken a huge, highly focused effort by a large number of people to get a network of apps and instances to successfully interoperate. Now we've achieved that, we have no idea what to do with it, so we imitate YT and birdsite drama, and waste time and energy in border squabbles.

      Let's imagine that it's 2030, and we've succeeded beyond our wildest dreams. The vast majority of net users are doing their communication and publishing on user-controlled platforms, running #FreeCode software, federated with #OpenProtocols where it makes sense. The now-dominant corporate #DataFarms have gone the way of #MySpace, #Friendster, and #Bebo. Now what do we do? What's it all for?
