This is the first time I heard the term "good AI". Is that a term people use?
But I wonder what Fediverse software she's talking about. I mean we definitely have interoperability. But moving accounts (portability) is kinda notoriously difficult. A lot of platforms don't support it, or don't support it well... It is supported by Mastodon but you really want to read the 2-3 pages of extra information because it's not entirely seamless... It's not the first thing that comes to my mind when talking about why the Fediverse is great.
I really like the overall message, though. Also: always remember we don't have to subscribe to some extremes. It rarely needs to be 100% boycot while not doing anything else to change the bigger picture... Or on the other end of the extremes: 100% demand the government do something while continuing to endulge in doomscrolling sessions on TikTok and X... I think something in the middle would be great. Keep your Instagram account if you like... Use it a bit less, in turn use the Fediverse a bit more... And spend some time molesting your representatives. Tell them it's about time to regulate big tech. Or to get a bit of our personal data back under our control. Would also be nice if one day Jeff Bezos paid more taxes than me... Just saying.
Great questions for @taylorlorenz@taylorlorenz@mastodon.social
