This work is technically possible, but it requires a very different regulatory environment than the one we currently have, one that mandates interoperability and protects adversarial interoperability, the ability to build a product that announces “I’m going to be compatible with you whether you like it or not.” The ecosystem my friends and I are building includes both large and small social networks. I don’t just want you to have control over Smalltown — I want to give you control over Facebook, as well, using the tools you choose to determine what content you see. Unverified source (2022)
