How to Kill a Decentralised Network (such as the Fediverse) écrit par Ploum, Lionel Dricot, ingénieur, écrivain de science-fiction, développeur de logiciels libres.

Fediverse can only win by keeping its ground, by speaking about freedom, morals, ethics, values. By starting open, non-commercial and non-spied discussions. By acknowledging that the goal is not to win. Not to embrace. The goal is to stay a tool. A tool dedicated to offer a place of freedom for connected human beings. Something that no commercial entity will ever offer.

    You mean like a community dedicated to advertising? I guess that’s alright, but I don’t see why anyone would go there?

    I’m fine with people selling stuff as long as it’s related to the topic of the community. If I’m browsing a community about the Warhammer 40k tabletop, I’m fine with someone selling minis or paint.

    What I’m against is browsing, say, a community about video games and people selling car insurance or something. This includes ads put there by the platform owners. I won’t buy your product, I won’t associate it with anything good. Let me opt out of this bs and sell your crap to people who care.
