I mean there’s Reddit ofc, as well as Twitter in its entirety, Discord is implementing some dumb updates, there are issues with Tumblr as well as everything to do with Meta, and I’m sure there are plenty more (and I haven’t even touched other digital media, for example the Sims). Why is it all happening in the span of about a couple months?

      Good news.

      Computers are much cheaper and text is very low bandwidth. A $100/month server will be able to host a large chunk of us, and donations will likely be able to cover these meager costs.

      Without a need to grow exponentially, we can mostly sit happy on single physical server and $100/month (or so) independent instances.

      No need to build $million+ data centers like the big boys. We can take advantage of our small size instead.
