    That is still more a problem of people and tribalism.

    I don’t agree with the rest of your post particularly, but this is the central theme. People will fuck anything up and run it into the ground by virtue of being people, and groups of people fuck things up faster.

    Fediverse is no silver bullet; nothing is. The monkey that touches the technology and tools is the source of their misuse, and the monkey never changes, although the tool does.

      Not a silver bullet. But basic conditions for the right things to happen. Just as anarchism isn’t a silver bullet. But its the right conditions for people to actually choose for themselves. And make the right choices society would otherwise deny. There are no silver bullets. Those have always been fictional tropes. And never my intention to imply otherwise.
