If you haven't donated or became a patron to Small Technology Foundation. You should they are building a better web for individuals.

Big Tech went to shit.
Big Tech was always shit.

Definitely Surveillance Capitalism at its best! While also getting 90% or more of their money from Google itself. Without that money or partnership they would go out of business.

Mozilla is a for-profit not-for-profit. And that’s all you need to know to explain everything that doesn’t seem to make sense about the chasm between what they say and what they do.

The Small Web is the personal web. It’s the peer-to-peer web.
There’s no concept of ‘users’ on the Small Web. You own and control your own place on it. With your place, you can be public should you so desire and follow each other’s activity but you can also be private – actually private, i.e., communicate via end-to-end encrypted messages.
It’s very early days and it’s not ready for use yet but you can find out more and follow along:

If it wasn't for Aral promoting superior content on Mastodon. I don't think i would have switch over fully from X or Twitter. Whatever it be called these days.
I'm not much of a web developer or coder. But will learn about accessibility in web development. After purchasing "Accessibility for Everyone"by @laura while also funding/supporting Small Tech Foundation.
After years of being on Twitter and thanks to @aral for advocating about Mastodon. I'm finally migrating over with so much more freedom.
