Yup. I don't think the average user is even aware of the debate over decentralization. All they wanted was a new twitter, and Bsky was the closest. That's it.

Funny, that's the example I always use, too. I watch whatever I want, when I want, for absolutely free except the cost of a VPN and the one-time purchase of a home server, thanks to plex and bittorrent. I can't code, I don't know what a secure socket layer is, I can just follow directions.
And it's depressing that people pay for these things basically because they abhor the idea of learning anything that takes a little patience.

Changing the word every other day in an endless game of whack-a-mole vs. signing up once on a new website?
All of us here know which is easier in the long run.
