This is it 100%. I don’t think there is a major platform that does not already exist in the fediverse. I’m sure there is something, but even Instagram and YouTube can be replaced… well the YouTube one is hard due to the bandwidth and storage needed. But the tech is out there.

I think at some point this web3 will take over. Things like YouTube, will eventually come, but we need a lot of cost reduction in current tech to be able to do that.

We are finally taking the web back.

Wasn't web3 about everything being under control of a handful of mega corps that own everything? So more like web4 then.

This has always been my understanding of the web generations:

• Web 1: Everyone posts content on their own separate website
• Web 2: Everyone posts content on a single website owned by a big corp
• Web 3: Everyone posts content on each other's websites, or on a decentralized network of sites like the Fediverse

With the quick death of Twitter and the even quicker death of Reddit, we as a community are speedrunning the transition to federated social media. We only need good mobile UX and keeping the growth, and we're set. It feels like a post-apocalypse right now, and I am not sure how to feel about it.

I say let’s keep up this momentum and continue making this a space people want to be in and engage with.

We’re already off to a strong start, let’s commit and see what new corner of the internet we can define for ourselves.

The future of the internet isn't artificially scarce digital collectibles? 😲
