I think it's a pushback against the hyper-centralisation of the web over the past few years. This is people wanting to provide open, trustworthy alternatives to the walled garden approach. I personally am pretty excited about the opportunities of decentralisation and the distributed web.

Maybe some things never meant to directly make money, but to add value in other ways. Imagine of Facebook was actually to connect people and to make communication and sharing simpler.
