> I think the average person should be able to publish what they want (no matter how stupid) without specialized knowledge and without being censored. I agree, it's an unfortunate consequence of monetary incentive. There's tons of FOSS self-hosted alternatives for any typical centralized service, all of which could be bundled and idiotproofed and sold to average people. But no one is out there innovating and marketing it and pushing it to the mainstream (if the demand is even there - not likely) Theres a few attempts, like https://nextcloud.com/devices/ https://nextcloud.com/devices/ , but I would have never heard of them if I didn't have a specific interest in finding open source alternatives to cloud services.
