At the moment the internet is flawed, do you think the fediverse is the solution?

Before we had the fediverse - long before it - we had Usenet: people conversing globally in email-shaped units. It was shared and synched.

It was awesome. Questions answered, points debated, everything you wanted.

I don't think the fediverse is a magical solution, but it does have a familiar feel to it. Not as good when it comes to spelling, but "it's just the web," so the rules are maybe different.

This is fine.
