I completely agree. Why on earth is anyone still using this stupid Marxist term for new ideas? There are many new forms of collaborative and cooperative governance that we should be experimenting with that have nothing to do with communism or “socialism” in the political sense. It should be obvious how absurd it is to keep using this word unless you are genuinely using it I’m the Marxist sense.

The seems to be the case, it mentions the fediverse, but as an incomplete tool to achieve what the author is proposing. The main idea I got from the article is "social ownership" of the internet. It seems that the author allows communities not backed/run by the state though. Maybe a throwaway line to appease critics.
