When you generalize your position about your available time and technical knowledge as the limiting factor for everybody you are not saying it’s impossible for you, you’re saying it’s impossible for anybody and everybody. That’s the problem. It’s like saying “I don’t like this food” versus “It tastes bad!”. For you they are equivalent, for others they are totally different. I’m not saying you, or anybody else, should learn about self-hosting (federated) social platforms then set some up, what I’m rejecting instead is giving up pre-emptively on the behalf of others because it’s giving power back to BigTech.
I haven’t generalized anything beyond the extents of
my area geographically
The groups in my area which i interact with
An individuals weight within a community over time.
I have not said it’s impossible to do for me and have made no claim on the ability for others to do it.
I’ll give you so much as i didn’t append “for me” or “in my situation” to every sentence, but the statements lay within the context provided in the rest of the post.
