social

Nearly every Elon tweet lately is an advertisement for decentralized social.

His takeover of X is the main reason I became a daily Farcaster user. There are likely millions of users there who want to leave for the same reason but don't know where to go.

Same here. I still use X because I have to but it’s textbook case of a social network becoming extractive of its users. It sucks.

It's not happening to the same degree on Facebook, but yeah.  I'm there because it's still the bulk of my income - through my own monetization efforts, since the official creator performance bonus program pays a pittance.  $15 on a post that's got 4.5k shares.  I can make that with a handful of comments and replies here now.  Moxie has REALLY been highlighting the extractive nature of mainstream social for me lately.
