Blockchains promote liberty because transactions can't be censored.
Federated servers promote subjugation because each admin has absolute power over their server.

@strypey If you have enough computing power you can become “aristocracy”. But yeah, that’s not as good as just needing an RPi.

But also, the most common experience on fediverse is not running your own server, it’s using someone else’s. Blockchains usually have techniques to give normal users more autonomy using cryptography.

That being said, it’s possible to have signatures etc on a federated network. Polycentric is one example, so is @silverpill@mitra.social’s work on fediverse standards.
