    Today. Among thousands of times.

    I’m with OP. People have been screaming this for ages, and the collective societal reaction hasn’t even been apathy, but “We vote for Big Tech CEOs, full steam ahead.”

    So… Yeah, I’m tired, too. Screw it all. Let the internet burn in Reddit/Discord/SEO hell. Maybe we can build something from the ashes.

      How about strengthening the Fediverse and Lemmy?

      Let the internet burn in Reddit/Discord/SEO hell. Maybe we can build something from the ashes.

      So basically, let the world burn? Because that’s what it looks like we’re heading toward right now because of big tech.

      Maybe we can build something from the ashes.

      The big question is whether it will be us who do that.

        let the world burn

        That’s what’s gonna happen.

        Maybe Europe and China will “isolate” themselves from much of the burning. I hope they do. But the rest of the world seems quite entrenched in Big Tech.

        Maybe burning quickly is better, since more people will notice.
