I saw this in another thread on /c/Showerthoughts. I think it’s important for this to be circulated widely so that the broader Fediverse community is aligned. We don’t want admins second-guessing their decisions when users start infighting. We should be united in our thinking and ready to protect our platform.

    One of the best weapons against this is probably having a well-formulated idea about this, which can effectively be communicated to people who are not in the loop. For example Right to Repair presents a kind of “our high quality device with schematics vs their short lived crapware”. Good naming helps too. I suggest “Fediverse vs Corponet”

      Fediverse vs Corponet sounds great! But I wonder if we can go more along the lines of Right to Repair? Something like Right to Publish or Content Independence or something?

      Corponet very clearly sounds bad, which is good, but Fediverse requires an explanation to a layman without generating interest, first. Laymen are interested in rights and independence, so I think words like that can act as a hook. I’m open to debate, too
