As an American I hope there are consequences to America due to trump's flaunting of global environmental pacts. But that is driven by my feeble belief that our voting populace can connect cause and effect, which they've shown they cannot. So... I don't know who to fight anymore. I'm just sad and I'm sorry to the world.

Why not give a crash course for OP? As I understand it, Federation is just one standard of protocol that can communicate across servers. I think OP is referring to Federated here as both the protocol and the movement away from platforms. I think this is a valid part of growing both Federated protocols, and protocols in general as an alternative to big-tech platforms. The major platforms DO offer hosting in a way. People host their photos libraries on Facebook and Instagram. So a non-platform alternative may interest some.
For hosting - get a private VPS and run your own cloud services. Explore RSS for news feeds, a super OG protocol that podcast feeds still use I think.
Web browsers shouldn't be federated because the idea there is privacy, security, and ad blocking.
Yeah exactly. I remember really liking it as a kid but never finished it. Grandia II was my jrpg of choice on Dreamcast. But I'd check out a modern open world take on the Skies of Arcadia IP.
Kindness > assholes usually works for me if I can't take the time to learn all the nuances but feel like I want to form an opinion.
I want a battery that lasts a week, a headphone jack, and an eink screen.
How the fuck do yall afford houses?
My assumption is everything everywhere on the internet is already assumed to be fair game for spying, scraping, training, whatever.
At this point the interests seem more about serving than gathering information - hence the political games to control specific platforms now.
Can we get this in Washington State please.
Or as my stubborn ass thinks about it when I am staying up late: "As soon as I go to bed I'm on the clock..."
I like having my stable daily driver (currently PopOS) and a separate drive or partition for a rotating distro that may pose more of a learning curve (NixOS right now). So it doesn't really feel like hopping, more like a stable and a sandbox.
Solid points. I'm with you. I admit I am skeptical of all platforms. I operate from the assumption that we only hear about moderation when these platforms want to control content for other reasons. Moderation for hate speech could be as simple as moderation for porn, but it is not because it isn't about hate speech, it is about what the platforms can and can't control. Which was the point I was trying to make. Sorry if that got lost.
