    This is it. The original pioneers of the net are starting to leave us. I hope we can take care of their baby as well as they did.

      We didn’t. It has become a stinking pile of layers not even organizations worth hundreds of millions can put together anymore.

        Those corporations are the ones who push for those layers to make it feel harder for you to do your own thing.

        Fucking ignore them.

        On a more positive note, Facebook and XFormerlyKnowAsTwitter are not essential parts of the internet. You can choose to not use or care about them. It is much harder to not use NTP, and it’s great that it is an open and comprehensible standard 👌
