  • This one is easy. I remember the 90s when microsoft pretended to play nice with everyone while they simultaneously did their damndest to destroy any competitor by their embrace and extend tactic. I also remember when AOL opened up their walled garden and the amount of garbage that flooded every usenet group. Im aware that the redditpocalypse probably had the same effect on lemmy but I still support defederation.

Maybe we end up with everything replaced by different distributed services. It’s going to incredibly annoying when half the search results are dead links or links to reddit but that annoyance can drive innovation.
