You’re conflating decentralization with financialization. Just because something is decentralized (e.g. BitTorrent, Mastodon) doesn’t mean it’ll be abused by people with money. Decentralization just means “not keeping everything in one server / something controlled by a single person”

Im all for setting up mesh networks with appropriate protocols that are truly decentralized, but people have to be willing to accept lots of pain points and slowness along the way, which quickly makes people not care.
