@Jakeout @jake @jensimmons reputable places won't do that.

There are issues with a federated system that will be hiccups, compared with a seamless single silo, no argument there.

But it really is a pretty well thought out system I think. Built in flexibility on many fronts.

And as for accounts, people had multiple Twitter accounts, no different here

@piccolbo @Jakeout @chipchirp

Another private silo isn't the correct answer.

Federated, distributed is the solution. Literally what email is, but for social media

@chipchirp @bossandnova @piccolbo @Jakeout a blog is a website which is federated and distributed via the public/open HTTP protocol.

Whether you make your own website public or private is a separate consideration to my thinking.

@pixelpusher220 @bossandnova @piccolbo @Jakeout ok i think I understand, i am having a dopey start to my day and I suppose the gist of what id like to see is a variety of redundant archival systems available to users that should be no more sophisticated to the user than repeating what was shared and saving it away on a site they own or an account on another service. I dont want a little insance tyrant with all the hubris of the HOA busybody ruining accounts and causing people to lose stuff they posted ij the past, (or worse, an insecure dork who thinks drip means carrying a sink around, and that free speech is about suspending anyone who says boo about him)

Bah im almost out of coffee creamer, today is feeling like a half day….
