Nooo! Colonialism bad!
Colonialism isn’t colonising.
Colonising is the act of sending people to settle a place.
Colonialism is when you send those people to take someone else’s place.
You can colonise a place that no one owns, such as space and that’s cool.
Its meant in the sense: better build communities in the fediverse rather than on Mars. Its a pun on "Colonize Mars"
Oh well it sounds like kill it and replace it with something profitable
You are right, it could be read that way from the title. But from the content it becomes pretty clear that the section of the universe called the "Open Web" was deserted in this world decades ago and no one is there.
