The problem is that most of the usable, visible, Web is equal to that. Google & Microsoft control most of what we see. Pinterest controls image access. Meta drives engagement to companies, and Reddit drives linkouts. Twitter handles most major news sources. Occasionally there's a chance that StackOverflow or Quora put in a word or two.

Society leads us to ever larger communities. Corporations just make profit based on human behavior.
