Yep… Bought Sync and Apollo long ago. Moved to Lemmy today. Slowly moving all of my main socials to decentralized/federated platforms because the greedy corpos breaking their own shit.
Same. But I wish it was more straightforward. I’m not convinced the average/occasional user will transition to decentralized platforms if it’s a pain to do so.
That might be for the better. The more people that get on these things tends to lower the bar and open these communities up to more bad actors.
I'm not sure about that. I would expect motivated bad actors to be determined to overcome technical obstacles. It's normal, casual people who'll give up and leave.
Ya the motivated ones will, but the low effort ones won't which I think will significantly cut down on the overall shittiness.
