Lemmy and Mastodon feel like the real web3. - Lemmy.world

I think this decentralization and federation is what web3 is all about, without all the corporations calling everything to do with monkey pixel art that costs a million dollars “web3”

It's nice to have this space to retreat to. Even if it doesn't outcompete the corporate web anytime soon, the existence of another option will constrain how bad they can get a bit, and will create a place for refugees to go after each new outrage. And it's not like the core functionality of any of the corporate sites was that complicated underneath all the bloat, after people have been on here working out the kinks for a while there's no reason it should be any less convenient of an experience.
Feels like old school forums again. A little barebones compared to some of the corporate stuff, but that's not a bad thing. Just the simple what's needed no extra fluff.
I like it like this, but I've always been a minimalist. With a few QoL changes/fixes (especially for the mobile app) this will be perfect.
I agree, it's got a really solid foundation and Lemmy's got nowhere to go but up
