       I just generally think that if we want to make the internet (and the world?) better then "taking a few steps back" will get us there faster than endlessly trying to 'leap' forward.

       @ffsanton There are important applications for which "motor vehicles" of some kind are an excellent fit, even in urban areas. Ambulances, fire engines, taxicabs, some kinds of delivery services come to mind. For many of those, battery-electrics will serve well in place of the internal-combustion engine.But overall I really think that most countries could do very well with 1 automobile per 10 people, rather than 2 per 3 as in Bavaria, or 5 per 4 as in the USA. Driving is an awful use of time!

       @ffsanton didn't web 2.0 introduce rss and wikis (and even fedi) though?

       @lambdagoat @ffsanton the fediverse doesn't depends on a web browser. You could just use native clients connecting to the servers. They'd use HTTPS, yes. But the main problem with the web are web standards and browsers. A native fediverse client would not have those issues (unless it's electron)
