The Fediverse 

Alt-media is better than mainstream social media, but it still has the problem of centralization. The "fediverse" refers to all federated (read, free) services and protocols, from video sharing with Peertube to "FOSS [Discord]", the Matrix Protocol.

It is infested with lefties, which is ironic for a group that would shut down all federated services by force in their own society for enabling "fascism". However, since these services are truly free and federated, you can always start your own instance comprised entirely of your own friends or those approved by yourself.

The Fediverse, just like everything else in existence, is under attack by politicians (read, subhumans, criminals) via threats to e2ee and p2p protocols, which are the very foundations of some of these services.

The Fediverse is what the Web should be.

More people should use Federated services

If you truly believe you are the sole owner of your data, you will use fediverse services.

the fediverse 

a decentralized social network, or "federated universe," of independent social media websites and platforms, which all interoperate with eachother via the activitypub protocol, forming the larger network. this includes several instances of mastodon, misskey and its forks, pleroma/akkoma, etc.

it isn't owned by any one party, in the same way that "email" isn't owned by gmail, outlook, and thousands of mail servers connected to the internet.

i also have an account on the fediverse if any of you nerds wanna follow me over there
