everyone on the decentralized social media platform is mad that the contents of the decentralized social media platform were easily accessible for all to use, not locked down and controlled by a single organization, created by a team with an explicitly stated goal of decentralized development?

Highly recommend the Polycrisis newsletter if you're interested in the intersection of finance, climate and political economy
Wow, it's busy here! Hi, new followers: I used to write a lot about climate science + finance; these days I'm more into the political economy of mitigation, adaptation & finance. A lot of my current writing is here: buttondown.email/polycrisisdi... & here www.phenomenalworld.org/series/the-p...
The Polycrisis
A project by Kate Mackenzie and Tim Sahay, focused on today’s intersecting crises and the political economy of climate change.
