So many buzzwords but nothing interesting.

Why no one talks about other victims of car accidents and their is about 6k per month on average in US alone. But Uber and Tesla are on headlines when someone dies and there is like what 3-4 victims in total after all those years? It is not even worth mentioning.

Of course but imo it's not good strategy when you are dividing into hundreds of instances with 500+ users.

People still need to pay for it. FSF would also die of hunger if it were not for people donating them money they have to earn first... so nothing is free.

Yes, but so called "social media" isn't about installing anything to operate with. Twitter blow up the scene because it was super easy to start with and start sharing short sentences. In Mastadon you need to find a proper community, signup and start reading, but there is not interesting content there, no celebrities, no NASA, no Musk, no news magazines there is nothing that attracts typical users. But this is just my opinion. Until someone figure out a way to make Mastodon a one network to rule them all nothing will change.

And who writes on Mastodon? Mostly devs or Trump? Maybe Obama? Ellen? No? So no one will use it, ever. I'm not against technology as it is great, but looking on this as a normal user it's not appealing to me. Mastodon is like old fashion phpBB forums 15 years ago, closed groups who talk with each other. ;)

Mastodon will need to find business model sooner or later as internet isn't free as in beer because beer costs money and you can't handle 100m users with donations.

So developers are building "social media" for developers with famous 30 minut install, make new instance or manage it by yourself kind of thing.

Typical social media users will never get into fediverse as they still are using shortcut to google.com as their "internet connection".

But great that technology is moving forward.

Game limits, not wanting to share private account with some random folks used in games or for commercial purposes aka selling account later on and I can tell that this business is booming! :)

Great thing about Elon is that he believes in everything so much he is probably laughing reading those articles. I understand that myself, would lough too. There will be no future without 100% automation and for me this is the best bet you can make. We have so many areas of life that need to be automated and someone has to be first. Companies that have ancient roots are too unreformable and don't want to change what already works well for them, which is why BMW is lagging behind, despite the fact that it can produce millions of cars a year.

People will go crazy, say that he lost everything, he is stupid, etc... But he will not give a f%#k just to return with double power and hit like no other.

Yea, that is still a huge number, but for advertisers that use FB as a platform is a huge waste of money and FB could easily abuse that as well.

This don't change my comment still many of them are fakes. I know people who have 5-6 accounts active at one time playing different games with 500+ friends on it. Many of those "friends" also are fakes, some even with the same profile picture of "real person" with fake data but I have nothing against FB, every medium is abused.

It's just interesting that not a single research was done on this topic that I know about. :)

Probably half of that are fake profiles, profiles made by people for commercial purposes or bots. If you make fake account and you will start wandering in the endless facebook steppes, you will notice that many of them are one post account that advertise or play games. The best ones are those with pictures of known or lesser known models to collect friends and sell such an account for dollars later. I have reported several hundred of such profiles, of which maybe 1/20 have been blocked rest is fine because moderators can't see difference between real life person and photo from google images in 20 accounts in a row...
