Agree
>This article about decentralization does what many other evangelism articles do: talk about the ideals and benefits.
Exactly! This week I tweeted this old clip of Steve Jobs praising decentralization https://twitter.com/maramesque/status/1194136650500255744?s=21 https://twitter.com/maramesque/status/1194136650500255744?s=... then it hit me how Steve worked so hard to make Apple centralized.
Sure, Apple was great during his lifetime, but what happened to this very centralized company after Jobs passed away?
Did Apple live up to Jobs legacy and promises from protecting users privacy to building great products?
I think we will always live in a world full of centralized products used by the mainstream.
The mainstream will eventually get smarter and founders will always face the pressure to improve products, respect users privacy and attention.
The days of launching an app from your college and watching people downloading it from all over the world are long gone.
