It seems like due to the downfall of Twitter and Reddit, people will be moving to the Fediverse instead, and since there is not much here, people won’t be addicted to it anymore.
Additionally, it’s open-source and de-centralized as well, which omits censorship. What do you guys think?
Isn’t it de-centralized though?
Yes, but I think it’s as @Candelestine@lemmy.world says. As any form of social media grows past a certain point, the more everything becomes ‘averaged out’ to the lowest common denominator. IE the things that get upvoted the most end up being only things with mass appeal across the breadth of the user base. From past experience we know this is by and large rage-bait.
Of course this can be mitigated to an extent by carefully curating what you’re blocking and subscribed to. Furthermore defederating can effect this but I’m not yet knowledgeable enough to guess how effective.
We may understand that, but I don’t think that the groups that will want to censor will.
That’s why it will fail. One can just repost the same thing via a different instance, which the group that wants to censor them may not have control of.
