imho its no longer possible to reach critical mass emulating of old Twitter, Facebook etc. (in any shape or form).

The ship has sailed, old generations are burned and tired of social, the new generations comming along are addicted to tiktok etc.

The hope of decentral and open source is not to win the nerds, but to accelerate good innovation that will make many more people join in new platforms that are fundementally different, offer more utility and less toxic / abusive

@openrisk Tik Tok is definitely the new smoking for young generations. But I was feeling like "boomers" kind of still like spending time on Facebook and that my generation (Gen X) are the one really burnt by social media, in need of sth else...
Just an impression, no data to support this.
