I wish all the best wishes to fediverse too. I'd like to take this one step too that communities have gone a similar transition too from forums to mostly now discord and I wish them to move to something like matrix which is federated (yes I know it has issues, but trust me sacrifices must be made)

What are your thoughts on things like bluesky/nostr and (matrix) too.

Bluesky does seem centralized in its current stage but its idea of (pds?) makes it fundamentally hack proof in the sense that if you are on a server which gets hacked, then your account is still safe or atleast that's the plan, not sure about its current implementation.

I also agree with AI not being the next awesome. Maybe for coding sure, but not in general yeah. But even in coding man, I feel like its good enough and its hard to catch more progress from now on and its just not worth it but honestly that's just me.

I think BlueSky still needs to prove itself. It is what Twitter/X was a decade ago, before the enshittification, and I enjoy the content a lot, with my reservations.

The weakness of Mastodon (and the Fediverse IMO), is that you can join one of many instances, and it becomes easier to form an echo chamber. Your feed will the the Fediverse hose (lots of irrelevant content), your local instance (an echo chamber), or your subscriptions (curating them takes effort). Nevertheless, that might be as well a strength I'm not truly appreciating.

		There was a Neal Stephenson novel where curated feeds had become a big business because it was the only tolerable way to browse the Internet. Lately I've been thinking that's more likely to happen.

		I mean both bluesky and fediverse are just decentralized technologies, so lets say that you are worried about bluesky "enshittening" I doubt it to happen because of its decentralized-enough nature. I also agree with the subscriptions curation part the last time I checked, but I didn't use mastodon as often as I used lemmy and it was a less of an issue on lemmy. Still, I feel like bluesky as an technology is goated and doesn't feel like it can be enshittened. Nostr on the other hand does seem to me as an echo chamber of crypto bros but honestly, that's the most decentralization as you can ever get. Shame that we are going to get mostly nothing meaningful out of it imo. Which in that case bluesky seems to me as good enough but things like search etc. / the current bluesky is definitely centralized but honestly the same problems kept coming up on fediverse too, lemmy.world was getting too bloated with too many members and even mastodon had only one really famous home server afaik iirc mastodon.social right? Also I may be wrong, I usually am but iirc mastodon only allows you to comment/ interact with posts on your own server like, I wanted to comment on mastodon.social from some other server but I don't remember being able to do so, maybe skill issue from my side.
