The fediverse is something I'm excited for and it's still in it's infancy so it'll be intersting to see how it plays out as it starts getting more polished and user friendly.

Despite the doom and gloom of AI I think it's been really cool, and one area I've seen it help is for my relatives where instead of me having to solve basic tech issues AI has helped. When it develops into a full on companion that will do things it asks them to I'll be bothered less and less.

100% with you, but it needs to find a way to make itself more accessible to the average person. It’s a bit of a learning curve and there are a lot of people who won’t jump ship from the simplicity of Reddit because of that.
