@maybenot @chaosmonkey @jwildeboer @taschenorakel I’m not sure that’s true. If Facebook, Twitter, TikTok et al didn’t exist, and the Fediverse were massive, I see no reason to believe a state- or oligarch-funded disinfo op wouldn’t be hugely popular right here.
Would some instances block it? Sure. But would a lot of people actively seek it? Yes.
@maybenot @chaosmonkey @jwildeboer @taschenorakel if anything, the key difference that may protect the Fediverse somewhat is the lack of an algorithmic timeline / lack of motive to keep you engaged as long as possible. But that’s only tangentially related to centralization.
