Yes, I know my enemies
They're the teachers who taught me to fight me
Compromise, conformity
Assimilation, submission
Ignorance, hypocrisy
Brutality, the elite
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
What I really hope is that the fediverse doesn't end up in a fragmented mess trying to catch up with Meta's eventual extension of ActivityPub... What this project needs is a slow and steady (technological) development driven by the communities instead of trying to fit in with the big players. That's what really did harm XMPP too IMHO.

The thing is, ad companies don't even need to track your searches directly anymore. Maybe one of your friends googles something, they know you've been messaging as apps leak these metadata, or know you were at the same party days ago because maybe you left location access on, and bam! You get the ad because it's highly probable your friend told you about this interesting thing he found out...
I still write like an 8yo :F
