This is inspiring. We're seeing some momentum now with the internet pendulum swinging back in the direction of the distributed and federated platform that it was originally intended to be. Interoperability via standards-based protocols provides choice of providers and methods, and helps to limit the influence of walled gardens and ad-based services. I expect to see a number of services and providers arising that will offer good data privacy controls and an ad-free experience with funding via a reasonable monthly fee. Well done!
