@pooserville @cadey Users unwilling to learn or help themselves are cringe.

Being a noob isn't inherently bad. Everyone starts there. Some choose to stay there against their own well-being and *that* is what's deplorable.

(Also the fact they generally already faced the exact same challenge with email, so they're not really failing to understand, they're intentionally refusing to do it.)

@pooserville Good luck have fun with moderating that. We've already seen the megacorps can't (and won't) effectively do it.

We've also seen exactly how easy it is to completely takeover and ruin such an instance too.

And at the moment, Google exists because antitrust is being ignored (and Microsoft because it was already halfways dead by last time).

Unlike email however, very few people *need* maximum reach social media (or at all), so telling megacorps to get fucked is absolutely an option.
