Comment on The Internet is Dying. We Can Still Stop It
_cryptagion@anarchist.nexus 2 days agoHow long have you used the internet?
as long as I’ve been old enough to be on it, I suppose. I couldn’t give you an exact date, but not as long as you’ve had access to it since I’m not much older than 32.

That could definitely give you a different perspective. You might not really remember before twitter and Facebook. Heck before MySpace for that matter. Or when companies didn't advertise their website but rather their AOL keyword.
Activity Pub is a lot like Usenet on steroids. It really is a return to the distributed, democratized Internet. Before all those other things. The only big stumbling block the increasing tighter grip on access and CCP style censorship that many nations are gate-keeping with.
It's all good though, and with the view you've had of it so far I can absolutely understand and agree on how you think things are getting better. Because it is.
