A lot of people seem to want Fisher Price baby's first internet, and if they want that then they should probably stay on big Tech, where they can be coddled to their hearts content.
I'm not saying that the fediverse needs to be hacking around in telnet terminals or anything, but if I'm being totally honest the software for the fediverse is shockingly good, and a lot of people have gone out and built the exact communities that they want -- for some people that means open communities where you can say stuff that's really offensive, for other people that means very close communities where you are safe from ever seeing an opinion you disagree with.
Of course anything can be better, but I have personally found the fediverse good enough that it has become my primary method of social media. And that's only possible because a lot of people who put in a lot of work on the ground floor.
