@Wetrix @nikolal Well it kind of has to be. For profit silo "networks" cannot sustain themselves because they must break UX for monetization reasons. A network like Mastodon can live indefinitely with 2 users and still be useful because there's no pressure to be profitable. The long term trend will be towards tools that work for the people that use them because thats what people will gravitate towards in the long run. This applies to currency and social networks and anything really. Look at AOL.
