I am glad Hacker News is still against massively centralized things of SOME kind. I remember when the cypherpunks here were in favor of blockchain and crypto. The latest zeitgeist of being against decentralized stuff (witness the hate of plebbit) is leading the “hackers” here to learned helplessness and support online feudalism (big tech monopolies). And I was worried people started to embrace patents too.
Y’all will love decentralization next summer again.
