@pluralistic skipping to the end of the series, requiring platforms to support end-to-end communication (ie, net neutrality applied to the platform) is a very simple idea that would reduce the capacity of tech giants to distort relationships by extorting 'promoted content'.https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2023/06/save-news-we-need-end-end-webBasically, it would require twitter et al to send me the content I asked for (ie, from the people I follow), without requiring them to pay for special treatment.Which is the way the #fediverse works already
