Big tech will never love Lemmy because power belongs to the community.
And with enough federated servers in the network they could never hope to have the reach of things like Lemmy and Mastodon. Server costs would be massively spread out instead of reliant on one corporation.
It's even possible to run it on old PC that wasn't used long ago, so everything will be good as long as community exist
thats ok, big tech cant really make money off this anyway, the proof is in the pudding, just let us run our space, go throw some crap on billboards and on our video streams. its insane we need brokers and gatekeepers for simple formatted text messages.
We can and will run it for ourselves. USENET for the modern day!
