Not really, people understood email just fine, and fediverse isn't that different. The problem is there's a major subtle push to make anything open source look way more complex than it is. It's basically an open secret that microsoft did this with linux, and I'd be shocked if social media companies aren't doing the same.

it's extremely biased towards leftism

That's inevitable. Anything foss will appeal far more to the anti corporate/ anti capitalist leftist people.

Not really

Human variation....

Some people have difficulty with simple things, and they assume everyone else is the same because that's their frame of reference.

The president does it constantly...

I GOT BLOCKED BY MODS

1st paragraph: agreed 100%

2nd paragraph: thats not quite true. A LOT of right wing groups are in favor of Open Source.

Communautarians first (he's dead but hes the spirituzl father if this community - & btw his book The Quest for Community is wonderful).

Most right-libertarians too of course:

This is spontaneous order, a concept forged by Hayek.

Also crazy new right fucks, because they hate capitalism, but the Hayek peeps have nether been refuted, either by socialist or bew right guys

The new right was born in France. Peeeps like Alain de Benoist, who is an interesting folk & he ownd the biggest private library in the world.

The New Right holds some pagan views and see christianism a lie invented by the weak & the poor people to be protected against the strong man.

A bit like internet atheism.
