Just went to the guy's user page and Ctrl-F'ed "matrix". Found out about something called the fediverse, and holy shit, when I went to the website of "The Fediverse", peertube appears there, holy fucking shit, I use peertube nearly daily, and I didn't even know it was part of some fediverse, topkek. I don't get one thing though, how is federation decentralization? I mean, the point of a federation is that it centralizes the user's authorization point.

Fediverse is more like a cooperative, IMO, sharing some resources and functions.

SaidIt federated with NotABug.

Don't get me wrong, but I want to end the internet. Ted Kaczynski style. IMO, the world was much better and much more happier until human beings gained the ability to freely make software and communicate using messages printed out on a screen. Unrestricted access to the internet produce creatures like this and the number of /v/irgins rise by thousands every year a new game is released.

Pretty much me, not ending the internet, but having it as a tool instead of a consciousness. Internet!=RL merely an extension, and on extensions alone one cannot live.

Social media can drop though :)
