Comment on Fediverse alternative to Facebook is what's really missing

One huge problem is that most people on Facebook neither know nor care what sinister things Meta are doing to them. Everyone thinks they’re immune to propaganda, and most people don’t understand the true extent with which they’re being tracked or what’s being done with that data.

The flip side of that same coin is that, IME, fediverse developers champion data privacy, anonymity, and decentralization. Users should never offer that much personal data to one platform, so they build and advocate for platforms that don't require that data. Building a lowercase-f facebook on the fediverse would betray that foundation.
