The real genius is that these platforms are privately owned by the oligarchs whose interest the government represents. So, they can claim that there is no government censorship happening in the west.
Exactly right, the internet was always meant to be a decentralized. Fediverse is paving the way back towards the original vision. One problem with the original vision was lack of discoverability, and I think that’s what gave rise to centralized platforms. People could go to one site and get all the content in one place without having to hunt around. ActivityPub provides an alternative solution by allowing different sites to link up with each other providing us with the best of both worlds.
proper wording to be used to be not banned on Twitter :)
Love that 1 downvoter.
The western leaders want to you to see what they want you to see, not what the truth require! totally normal reaction from twitter.

That’a why fediverse exists. Use Mastodon and Lemmy, not the centralized platforms like Twitter.

fediverse feels like usenet, and I mean it like a compliment
