This feels appropriate for the second thing I've ever posted to mastodon.
@oatmeal I still don’t understand how people were voluntarily giving up control over their audience in favor of social networks. They basically lost their own little communities and gave them to multimillionaire owned money grabbing machines.
@enkydu
Because they believed that social networks would bring them more of an audience than they could find themselves. The trouble will always be though, that if someone can give you something online, they can generally take it back, so it's not really yours anyway.
