The internet for the average person has converged to a handful of products and services.
Your point being?
People prefer centralised stuff since it takes care a lot of stuff for them. They dont actually care all that much about technology that yield decentralised outcomes. I know that may be difficult for many here to comperehend.
- fsflover 1y agoPeople prefer centralized services until they enshittify, after which people move to the next thing, thanks to the decentralization.

- warkdarrior 1y ago> people move to the next thing, thanks to the decentralization This does not quite follow. Care to explain more? What I observe in practice is that people move from one centralized service to the next centralized service (e.g., X->BlueSky) but rarely from centralized to decentralized.
- fsflover 1y agoMost services aren't decentralized, but the Internet itself is decentralized, which allows to set up these independent services that can compete with each other.
