and you think those TucTuc users with an attention span of 15 seconds will be able to figure out how to get the best out of the plethora the decentralized Fediverse has to offer?
fuck, for most beginners learning what instances federate with which other ones is a tough learning curve.
I’d trust Redditurds more, until they can’t find the same subreddits because no-one has created them yet and no one seems to want to be a mod for free (well except them).
at least here most mods get recognition and aren’t tied to a corporate platform.
Who would you need to know who federated where? Are you expecting that they have communities and instances they want to make sure they can view from just one account before they even switch?
Just pick an instance, live the life, and create another account if you want one.
Well, like in any generation, there is a certain percentage of highly motivated, cream of the crop kids who will rise above it and succeed despite everything.
The real danger is the AVERAGE capability of those who DON’T seek better will crater, and in a democratic system, the capability of your system isn’t based on your top geniuses, it’s based on your average citizen. We’re going to have the most brilliant, capable generation of top minds the world has ever seen at the mercy of completely irrational fools ruled by dopamine and novelty.

and do we even want TucTuckers here?
Yes I do. And I like TikTok. I just view this as a ripe opportunity for the Fediverse.

Yeah the damage has been done. Half these kids lives have been spent on short form brain rot. There is no going back. Its a generation of idiots.

Same as it ever was!
