I'm still going to work on the free internet. But it will be niche. Cloudflare is already a gatekeeper and they will extend their power.

I expect that this means back to the internet of old for me. The internet where we don't care about the masses, where we develop for our peers and we do not pay much attention to corporations.

Remember the EFNet of the 90s?

In the early 90s, people hung out there and exchanged ideas and information. It was a truly chaotic time where people were riding net splits to take over channels (and then get neutered because someone gave a relay operator a good verbal bj.) That was before the dotcom boom, before zuck, when gatekeepers were on chat rooms that you could just hyphenate and then run your own, if you didn't like the other guy.

Think of it like a fully transient nostr.

Yes! So this is why, even though from a technology pov I don't like nostr, conceptually I truly love it.
