#Centralization is bad. The current massive #fail-ure of #Twitter is the best example. The infamous #FailWhale has returned and is bigger than ever.

And to be honest, I don't shed a single tear for #Twitter. It was always a questionable proprietary site before #ElonMusk, but under his rule it became much, much worse. #Proprietary software gives a small owner class unjust power over the many.

Let's embrace #decentralizaion and #FreeSoftware instead.
