I think the fediverse needs to get ahead of this and work on an LLM can parse all the distributed social network protocols like ActivityPub, AT and Nostr, their extensions and anything else that comes along and package them with a good UX.

But seriously, I think that the biggest weakness to monolithic mass social media will be moderation. The compulsory human component makes it much harder and expensive to scale than any other aspect.

@chema @tokyo_0 @gr0k This is very true, and underlines how fundamental parts of democratic society only function if people actively participate in them.

Generous public grants could help make this easier, but this is at root a problem of social organisation.

I think this is a good problem for us to be faced with since it is part of the general problem of how to have a sustainable society, and it needs to be worked on.

@Loukas @chema @tokyo_0 it's definitely a net benefit that society at large is finally starting to see the problem with centralised social media (and hopefully other things too) and even better that there are passionate people discussing the best way forward. We're lucky we can connect like this.
