it is truly devestating to see the state the internet and world is in. At least I know that communities are fighting back in many ways, although what they're fighting against is powerful, both in real life and the internet.
But hey, that's why I'm here, I believe in the fact that community projects (The Fediverse in this case) can thrive on their own, without having monetary incentive.
The internet has endless quality content (including porn) for free and is still a place where you can have fun while being completely anonymous.
The world has never been more peaceful and prosperous.
I don't get how either is worse than, say, 20 years ago. Stop being so fucking pessimistic all the time. It is what you make it.
20 years ago was 2003. The internet was fucking awesome in 2003.
Nostalgia trips are always great, but it was nothing compared to now
I agree that it’s different now.
