I won’t even respond to your juggling with my words. I’m lazy. You’ll start taking my phrases out of context again and the discussion will devolve into an empty argument. Surely your parents didn’t let you use the internet (if you were born then) when Google turned off all third party apps from the popular Google Talk back then. You probably don’t remember when Facebook and WhatsApp did the same thing. All social networks and messengers are going through this kind of production optimization and no one is making a big deal out of it. And in conclusion: I used fediverse when it was not yet mainstream. And now I have to admire the yelling of Reddit refugees.
