I'm excited to see the concept of federation gaining traction. I can't describe how disappointed I was when Jabber/XMPP failed, IRC faded from relevance, and Facebook/Twitter became the way to talk to people. Now, seeing everyone here and on Mastodon, I'm finally feeling a bit hopeful again.
@argv_minus_one @MrsEaves Honestly I am so glad something like the fediverse exists. This is so much more in parallel with how I try to live my life than some top-down centralized system.
