I've got a serious problem with the mainstream. Once the establishment finds out that a thing exists, they're going to start breaking it for their own ends. I often agree with or disagree with people on the fediverse, but at least I know the people I'm talking to are authentically talking to me. Once the establishment starts breaking in, I fully expect to see astroturfed users, astroturfed likes and reacts, and that's where it becomes sludge -- people getting paid to pretend to care full-time.
