Why does everyone keep thinking fedi needs to be the next "big thing."

It's great as it is. It doesn't need to be easier, or more widely adopted.

The internet used to be difficult to use and that acted as a filter to keep the brainless masses away. It's fine. It was BETTER back then.

It's not the people that got dumber, the tech did. Everyone has the capacity to become more knowledgeable of computers and the internet as a whole, but large corporations dumbed it down so they can take control of everything.
