@vmstan @cwebber @lgsp Was there ever any year where web design was better than it was in 1999? I mean just look at this stuff. Unbeaten tbh https://www.webdesignmuseum.org/all-websites/year-1999

@Sobex Welcome to @cwebber and her ironic troll humor posts.

[lgsp@urbanists.social]

@cwebber well ok. There is this thread connected to the blog post, from a person that looks like she knows what she is talking about:

@cwebber @phillycodehound

Yes, but where would be the fun of doing this?

[cwebber@social.coop]

@lgsp thank you I will ask her

[cwebber@social.coop]

@lobingera @phillycodehound probably no fun, decentralization is boring

[bam@sfba.social]

@cwebber You should see the author’s social threads.

@Bam @cwebber At least, this time I detected something was off ^^'

I hope the carry this swiftly across the blue orb called the sky !

@Bam @lgsp is the author on social media

@cwebber
Seriously, the other interesting piece (not from you) I could read about the topic (bit I bet you already know) is this one

@cwebber it could easily be decentralised with a bit of funding from someone like Thiel or Musk. Nothing a bit of VC or advertising can't fix /s

[cwebber@social.coop]

@otfrom they could fix a lot of things I bet

someone should get DOGE in to fix up the protocols maybe

[falken@qoto.org]

@cwebber in theory it is. In practice one company runs all the servers, and it's not practical to run own due to storage cost and huge rate of increase

[cwebber@social.coop]

@falken really is that true? how expensive would it be

[morix@loci.onl]

@cwebber if we ask around we can probably find a few others in other countries even, all the people there can't be bots on my computers right?

[cwebber@social.coop]

@morix there have to be some fediverse chicks on here somewhere

[janbeta@chaos.social]

@cwebber Many of its users are in different places, thus totally decentralized!

@cwebber @phillycodehound

... i see on the horizon a talk at the 39C3 "Make decentralization less boring again" ...
