       Nice interesting splintering on the web generally happening:- The social web splitting into a hundred pieces; people used to one "home" still looking for a new one (or living between many)- The AI web with rocks for dinner vs. the human web where it's the same ol' but the bots just feed on our interactions now

       Of course think the fediverse is the only real solution to #1. It's a long-term solution to an old problem. And every day it's great to see new people and orgs commit to it (especially in the US, where we're sooo slow to adopt anything that isn't VC-backed and marketed down our throats).I think the human-powered web will stand in even more stark relief as AI proliferates. Less automation, more messy shit. The *real* becomes more valuable

       @matt I saw someone say that they're starting to refer to the Fediverse as "independent social networking" and I feel like that might be easier for normal people to understand and get on board with.

       @Adam absolutely. I've seen "the social web" pick up too and I really like that. The less nerdy / esoteric the language the better

       @AnneTheWriter1 @matt @Adam I have the same argument all the time - it is numbers and the familiarity of FB that does it. Many don't want to be bothered starting from scratch. This also applies to X/Twitter

       @3dcandy @AnneTheWriter1 @matt I guess Fediverse needs to do something that FB never could. There have been some pretty big social network transitions... everyone moved from Friendster to MySpace when the popular people switched, and then again from MySpace to Facebook.
