PeerTube isn't in competition with YouTube. PixelFed is not in competition with Instagram. Friendica is not in competition with Facebook.</p><p>The Fediverse serves a different function then all of the billionaire funded social medias. The Fedi isn't meant to create a revenue flow for investors. It isn't meant to turn you into a product where your privacy is stripped from you.</p><p>The Fediverse is meant to give the USER control. It's meant to protect the disenfranchised. Give power to the people. Be safe from profit exploitation.</p><p>The Fediverse and corporate social media couldn't be more different. Trying to put them in competition is like trying to compare a toilet to a flower. Sure you can shit and piss on a flower, but the toilet will always stink and the flower will continue to grow.</p>]]></description><link>https://board.circlewithadot.net/topic/4fb0b35e-c808-4e66-b0c0-335f8575319f/stop-thinking-that-the-fediverse-needs-to-compete-with-corporate-owned-social-media.</link><generator>RSS for Node</generator><lastBuildDate>Sat, 06 Jun 2026 06:20:31 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link href="https://board.circlewithadot.net/topic/4fb0b35e-c808-4e66-b0c0-335f8575319f.rss" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/><pubDate>Fri, 29 May 2026 16:03:18 GMT</pubDate><ttl>60</ttl><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Stop thinking that the Fediverse needs to compete with corporate owned social media. on Fri, 29 May 2026 16:33:45 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p><span><a href="/user/mrfunkedude%40beige.party" rel="nofollow noopener">@<span>Mrfunkedude</span></a></span> <span><a href="/user/maggiejk%40zeroes.ca" rel="nofollow noopener">@<span>maggiejk</span></a></span> Agreed <img class="not-responsive emoji" src="https://media.infosec.exchange/infosec.exchange/custom_emojis/images/000/028/347/original/f79bb63d1237ef2b.png" title=":blobheartcat:" /></p>]]></description><link>https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://infosec.exchange/users/Em0nM4stodon/statuses/116658826466030102</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://infosec.exchange/users/Em0nM4stodon/statuses/116658826466030102</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[em0nm4stodon@infosec.exchange]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 29 May 2026 16:33:45 GMT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
