@ikuturso sure. Definitely different than a start-up. I guess all those NDA meetings, regardless of intention from Fediverse influencers, helped highlight those differences.
Zuc just needs his thumb over a few key servers and a few key laws to fall his way. He might not unequivocally kill the #Fediverse like a start-up. But he can maximize his chances at stopping it from ever realizing its decentralized mission. He can ensure that whatever servers left standing are pushed into obscurity.
Good mid-morning to all my #Fediverse friends! Hope you’re having a great day so far.
What things have you done so far or have planned to do?
I’ll be going back to the office tomorrow after being out since last Thursday with pneumonia. I’m finally starting to feel better but I can feel it trying to hang on. I’m still a bit slow in the morning and moving around takes a bit out of me. Today I’m taking to get amongst the living so to say and get ready to go back tomorrow.

Should we apply again?
Yes, not because they’ll suddenly “get it,” but because persistence itself is part of the composting, a record, a point of pressure.
Apply and simultaneously build a parallel path of community support, donations, partnerships, volunteer time. That way, the inevitable #NLnet rejection doesn’t kill all the momentum.
Shifting the blocking? Maybe translate native ideas into their language. Bureaucracies like “deliverables,” “impact metrics,” “alignment with EU digital policy.” Wrap your radical #4opens core in a frame they can recognise: resilience, digital sovereignty, anti-disinformation, democratic participation. That’s harder for them to ignore and strengthens the “native” path.
Expose the bias. Not in a bitter way, but in a constructive one: point out the repeated rejection of grassroots-native projects while funding flows to #geekproblem/NGOs. This pressure helps them re-balance (and others will maybe notice).
If you want to help, share the 3 projects (#MakingHistory, #IndymediaBack, #OGB) in #Fediverse channels. Frame this positively: “If we want a living #openweb, we need to fund and support native projects, not just corporate/NGO clones.” make it harder for them to keep sidelining.

This mild comment might be removed NOT BY ME. But by the absurd "rules" of the server I am in under the pretence of "Civility".
I am just stating A FACT that came from the mind and mouth of #CharlieKirk . And because someone might be triggered even in the more "Civilized" social media environment of the #fediverse , my comment might be Censored.
The fucking absurdities of these times.
