The thing I miss most about the 1990s is the feeling of optimism. It wasn't universal of course! Plenty of terrible shit was going on in the 1990s, but here in the US we were extremely privileged and genuinely feeling like all the biggest problems in the world were solved, just some loose ends to work out and the 21st century was going to look SO bright!

Were we naive and dumb? Hell yes, of course! But it was an intoxicating feeling, naive or not.

If you want an indieweb to thrive, and for communications to be private:

Corporations are your adversary.

The US Government is your adversary. (Cloud Act, etc.)

The EU Government is your adversary. (Chat Control, etc.)

The coalitions you want to form are among queer / nerd subcultures.

You want kinksters. You want furries. You want bronies. You want Warhammer 40K players. You want otaku. You want therians. You want juggalos. You want Sonic the Hedgehog fans. You want the cringe TikTokers. You want D&D players and LARPers. You want people who attend Renaissance Festivals. You want people that attend Cowboy Fast Draw events.

You can have all those without the Nazis.

You can have all those without any government's permission.

Without corporate gentrification and rent-seeking.

Both corporations and authoritarianism benefit from centralization.

Over the weekend, did you see the much-shared story on Reddit by a supposed whistleblower?

It started like this: "I’m a developer for a major food delivery app. The 'Priority Fee' and 'Driver Benefit Fee' go 100% to the company. The driver sees $0 of it. I’m posting this from a library Wi-Fi on a burner laptop because I am technically under a massive NDA. I don’t care anymore."

Well, it was a fake.
