You know with this being a privacy conscious fed, and Shitbook's libra coming out, it's never been a scarier time.
If libra comes out which Shitbook is saying it will and soon and it gains critical mass adoption, the world of privacy is going to more important than ever.

@Wetrix Libra is going to do what AOL did: help people discover the real internet but with money.
Privacy consciousness is already popular enough that everyone has at least one friend that doesn't use FB and the like. Critical mass for an exodus is around the corner. As long as people can use more than one network at a time the trend towards open software will continue. It cannot be stopped.
@mister_monster I wish I could believe that'll backfire but there's way to many people in Shitbook that'll just use it without question.

@Wetrix It isn't that it will backfire. Plenty of people *will* use it. Just like plenty of people use FB itself. But people can use more than one thing. Any useful UX decisions with Libra will be adopted in the cryptocurrency world, and as soon as someone has a transaction reversed they'll discover real cryptocurrency. Just like many people use the fediverse and Twitter/FB. And the trend will be towards free networks because it has to be, nothing else is sustainable.
@mister_monster I sure hope so.
Decentralized all the way that's for sure! And open source!
People can't be trusted with power and money so just take them out of the equation altogether 👍🏻
