If you are in your late thirties to mid-forties right now, there is a good chance that you have spent most of your life in a cycle of making some sort of home on the internet only to have it crumble beneath you like chalk and having to start over.
@evacide it's true but then we built it on the sand of private billionaire beaches, that's on us, maybe we let the sea take it all and start again on firmer freer ground.

I would love this. How do we do this without being billionaires or nation states ourselves? To my mind, the only way to accomplish this is to seize the means of production.

@zoneghost
To be fair, many of those places didn't start out like that. Probably didn't even intend to turn into what they've become now. Investors happened, and with that enshitification followed.

Just look at the origins of Facebook, that didn't start as a disguised advertising company driven by a mass corporate surveillance machine.
