It seems like due to the downfall of Twitter and Reddit, people will be moving to the Fediverse instead, and since there is not much here, people won’t be addicted to it anymore.
Additionally, it’s open-source and de-centralized as well, which omits censorship. What do you guys think?
I think the idea that our behavior is somehow related to our systems and not our demographics is the problem. I think the internet is going to change us, not the other way around.
People don’t have to like “better” things, and often they simply don’t. This is the flaw of laissez-faire, where we’re not perfectly rational actors.
Right now the average Fediverse user is an early-adopter type, usually techy. These people are often smarter than average, hence why they wind up in technical fields. Eventually they will not be the majority though, the avg intelligence/education in here will drop to the global avg. So will our behavior.
Spot on, this is the way it seems.
