The web promised small business techno-utopia, instead everything is centralized

>Mastodon doesn’t speak for decentralization That's kind of the point, IMHO. Mastodon doesn't <i>speak</i> for decentralization, it <i>is</i> decentralized. And that's not really splitting hairs here, it's an important distinction. I <i>could</i> set up a Mastodon instance (although Writefreely[1] and Pixelfed[2] are more my speed) that advocated for centralized <i>everything</i>. I could even ban folks who argue for decentralization and delete any comments they make in favor of same. It's a tool that allows folks to speak for themselves, without a central corporate authority dictating what's acceptable and what isn't. If you don't like a particular Fediverse[0] instance, move to another one or set one up for yourself.
