    And the app is literally just a browser that opens up the mobile site. Oh and it needs access to your contacts, messages, camera, microphone, pictures, files, and call logs!

      But you still have to download the app, because if you open the site in your actual browser it blocks you from going further if you try to click on any links

    I mean, other visions of Web 3.0 are essentially a larger scale version of what the Fediverse already does. I’m not that optimistic, sadly, since that kind of decentralization isn’t particularly profitable.

    3.0’s about blockchain; the problem you’re describing is like, late-stage 2.0. not to defend the app fetish or advocate for 3.0 by any means, lord no

    Honestly to me it seems like the harder these massive Web 2.0 corps push for Web3 and trashing their services for an ever increasing profit margin the more I think that a Web 3.0 won’t be Blockchain, but I think it will be something decentralized.

    The web is increasingly experienced exclusively through social media and with the building of more decentralized services (and the gaining traction) the more I think a decentralized social media future may be unfolding.

    I’m for it, I support FOSS for sure.
