@lianna@micro.webgarden.click > You'll never convince them to treat it in good faith no matter how much effort or money you put into UX or 'ease of use'. All you're doing is making the software worse, e. g. through things like dot-social, verified accounts or begging brands, corporations and politicians to join and give your product some kind of 'official' validation. I think this is the part that needs to be said the loudest. A lot of projects I used to really enjoy (both on and off the fediverse) went to complete shit by trying to be more like the corporate thing I ran away from to begin with. You don't fix anything by building an open source copy of the torment nexus, you fix shit by spitting on the torment nexus and building something better than it
