Honestly it’s a hard topic and I keep changing my mind on it. But currently this is my view:

If you point everyone to one place decentralization loses the meaning. I think people need to learn what decentralization is. It’s an important issue to be honest and people have to be on board knowing what they are doing. It will be hard for sure but otherwise if a new centralized competitor comes into town, why wouldn’t they switch if they don’t care?

At the moment twitter is the most affected social media but people has to understand that this isn’t just about twitter or reddit or whatever but about our rights to choose and decide where we want our data and who handles that. If people don’t know the system they won’t be aware of the issues.

With the Fediverse I’ve seen a lot of people worried about privacy and so on because they have to choose and suddenly they think about all the consequences. That’s a good think that hopefully will make them think twice about joining the next çnew centralized system.
