Just waiting for the web to become unbearably enshittified so I can finally be free.
I am kind of heartened when the mainstream people I know start complaining about how shitty their social medias have become. Now they just need to realise not only that they can leave, but they ought to leave.
Like it's pretty easy to make an ethical argument against contributing to mainstream corporate social media.
Yeah this is where I’m at. I’m educating myself and working on my self hosted offerings so once all the people around me start caring I’m here with all the knowledge and tech to make the switch really easy.
That's a great idea. I've experimented with a tiny lemmy instance, more for practice, just so if the demand suddenly arises, I could host an instance (ideally from a homelab).
Careful what you wish for…

Does this mean I should be putting ad banners on all my bun posts?
Yes Its only ethical
I'm waiting for the same thing for capitalism. Not long now...
Just gotta make some rogue AIs for that....
