These days he's more like Adolf Trump or Donald Hitler.. :blobcatscared:

Trump is literary copying Hitler and Mussolini and when we say something about that their reaction is that we are "obsessed with him"?

No, we warn for a dangerous fascist who's gaining support and is apparently accepted? :amaze:

It is time to wake up..

Another article on the Fediverse that seems to miss the mark, written by someone who may not fully grasp what it actually is. They've gathered a group of individuals who also may not be familiar with the Fediverse. However, I do have some thoughts on this.

Having had plenty of experience in social media marketing, I can say that the worst question a marketer can ask is, 'Why should I care about [x]?' If you have to ask that question, then it's best to continue not caring and focus on something else.

The Fediverse isn't designed to cater to marketers; if marketers choose to be a part of it, they should come with the intention of serving the Fediverse.

Why? Well, because the ultimate goal of marketing is to connect with people. If you view the Fediverse as a tool solely for achieving your own goals, you're bound to fail. However, if you recognize that this technology is all about fostering connections, then there may be some hope for you.

Another point worth mentioning is that some journalists have a tendency to label the Fediverse as Web3, which is simply inaccurate and can damage their credibility. Let's put an end to that misconception. The Fediverse has no association with cryptocurrency, blockchain, NFTs, or any of that realm. In fact, many individuals on the Fediverse openly oppose those concepts.

So, to all the journalists out there, please refrain from referring to the Fediverse as Web3 and let's ensure accuracy prevails.

Many people on #Fediverse have some (healthy) suspicion of authority figures.

However please let's not confuse our volunteer #FediAdmin sever ops & mods with authority figures. Fedi admins are good people helping our communities, much from their own time & dime.

Ppl having to take difficult decisions, in different ways according to their evaluation of each server's needs.

We can support, or move, or make new spaces, but remain considerate of each difficult balancing act.
