Honestly? Zuckerberg has always had an obsession with the next step as it relates to how people use the internet. He has a track record of trying to catch lightning in a bottle again and getting struck by lightning instead, to the detriment of his own company.

Just look at the Metaverse, he got obsessed with a relatively new technologies (vr and blockchain) and wasted billions of dollars chasing the same high he once got when Facebook took over.

Maybe he sees money in the fediverse, but i think Zuckerberg is just getting excited about a new technology like the rest of us. Unlike the rest of us however, he will likely end up spending billions of dollars continuing to chase that high that he got from Facebook.

It’s been a real struggle breaking the decade long habit of just opening reddit every time im bored, but I’m trying to ween myself off in preparation for when they kill 3rd party apps at the end of the month since i won’t be able to use RIF any longer.

I would say im spending about 80% of my time on kbin now. After the 3rd party app shutdown i’ll probably only use reddit when it comes up in top google search results.

I was thinking earlier that it would be nice if magazines that cover the same or similar topics could choose to federate to centralize related discussions. The communities would also have the freedom to defederate from other magazines of their respective communities that get too toxic or lack moderation.
