I often wonder: can we start over? Like, can we just do MySpace again?..or have another YouTube that’s like before Google bought it? If we hate how tech bros have destroyed the fun, is there a way to redux the pre-tech bro wonder years?

while peertube is a solution, and I really hope it succeeds, the content and creators arent there, anyways we can always use piped.

Not necessarily. The Free and Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) movement is a thing. Most of the Fediverse is FLOSS, and I doubt there’s anyone who can take Lemmy or Mastodon closed source and buy every instance and then stop pop-up instances. It does require quite a bit of work, though, so it is difficult.
I think the real challenging thing is that a great FLOSS service needs to attract attention and care. When I bring up Fediverse/FLOSS alternatives to software my friends complain about, I’m met with lukewarm-at-best reactions, generally due to networking effects (I think).

This is defenitely the exception, this is why I hope more people switch soon

I think the Fediverse is not doomed any time soon. In other areas XMPP is an example of an open source software based protocol since long and still being around, with active projects, and attempts to make things easier, like Snikket : snikket.org

Communism is bad. Lenin was a murderer and Stalin was worse.

No. All services that don’t enshittify will be outcompeted by services that do.
The love of money is the root of many evils.

Me personally I have just accepted this is the way it is going to be. The company makes a good product and then it stops making a good product, I move on.

I mean, you’re on Lemmy right. That’s what we’re doing.
