  It’s still a centralized. Single owner platform. Srop making assholes into millionaires

    Yeah, but they work until someone decides to fuck it up. Federation isn’t the holy grail you think it is.

    Admins still make unilateral decisions about federation and content, and if your home instance suddenly defederates, too bad, time to start over on a different instance with a new account with the exact same risks or maintain multiple accounts.

    If this sounds familiar, it’s awfully similar to what reddit did with their API by cutting off access points to content which is why most of us are here. Same shit, different shade of brown.

      The whole point of Mastodon not having an algorithm to show you things is to put the user in control of what kind of content they want to see.

      Why do you need an algorithm to tell you what you are interested in? You go on Mastodon and subscribe to what you want to.

        Mastodon has algorythms. Otherwise it couldn’t display the posts in the right orders, by example.

        Because it’s hard to find things, the normal person is used to an algorithm
