Some people seem to think that "decentralized" means "I can never have the reach of my posts restricted in any way ever" and that's just not a workable definition.

Now, imagine if we had dug in our heels and said "We're just the protocol guys. We don't ship apps."

Where would this network be? Where would the *protocol* be? It would've been a terribly risky bet to expect other companies to reach the market while downstream of us

I'm going to let other people comment on the other aspects of this, but one part I want to speak to is this:

"everything we wanted in terms of an open source protocol, suddenly became a company with VCs and a board"
