The Fediverse needs UI work. The new world needs a new internet.
I'm thankful we have this glorified hobbyist project of a micro internet, because it's awesome. It's time for real layout work to make things more intuitive, instead of this "just solder it" open-source-in-the-bad-way energy that sometimes gets half-assedly splattered around.
For everybody who has and is working on the Fediverse, thank you.
This will never happen without funding. Open Source severaly lacks funding big corporations have.
If they made it so your average joe could contribute to the Fediverse with their own hardware I'd contribute. Tired of seeing social media be owned by Billionares.
