Content is complete garbage.
Decentralisation isn't a feature for 99.9% of people.
- kzrdude 3y agoIt's just a mastodon instance, not something new - part of the fediverse.
- Ecstatify 3y agoThis is what the article is saying there’s a waitlist for and it’s also going to be moderated. So how is it going to be different than Twitter?
- kzrdude 3y agoI guess you didn't know about mastodon until now. I have joined there but social media isn't really for me, so I can't really speak for it: https://joinmastodon.org https://joinmastodon.org I don't think it has a chance to ever be as popular as twitter, simply because they don't want to add features to make it addictive.
- DoctorOW 3y agoDecentralization is a feature for the type of people who use Firefox. Mozilla's pivoting towards being a haven for the types of people who don't like their data being sold or mined.
- Ecstatify 3y agoThe majority or Mozilla’s revenue is from “search partnerships”.
- silisili 3y agoThanks for the link, I didn't even know that existed. The content is about exactly what I'd have expected for users of a Mozilla social network. Take that to mean what you will.
- treyd 3y ago> How will Mozilla compete with Meta, Twitter? This is the wrong framing. We should be asking how the Fediverse will compete with mainstream social media. Mozilla is just doing one part of a larger collective project. And so far Fedi has done so pretty well considering the relative amount of manpower behind development. And there's a lot of reasons for that.
