Already moved to Mastodon for the most part when Twitter went to shit, now I'm on Lemmy too. Still have my Reddit and Twitter accounts, but at least with Twitter I barely go there anymore. If they kill off old.reddit I'm out.

That would be nice, but I dont think it is realistic. Small communities can share a culture, and people can treat each other humanely. Once too many people are there it all goes down hill.

That's my hope.

Again? I thought fediverse is a fairly new concept

I think the meaning is that humanity will connect again and the location of that reconnection is the fediverse.

Though, tbf, the fediverse is similar to the old internet, consisting of small, interconnected networks. So you could say this is happening again.

All this has happened before, and all this will happen again

Capitalistic forces undermine real tools for human connection. They're sole focus is to extract value, and that is incongruent with a healthy network. Fediverse and other p2p tech will definitely be the foundation for a future web.

Ohh ok, I didn’t get it, thanks

federated things have been around for awhile (ie, XMPP and jabber - facebook used to used it for their chat!) but recently there's been a large uptick in usage

It's been a pleasure watching the fediverse bloom day after day. What a nice change from the greedy corporations that want to monopolize, track, and monetize everything.
