I feel like this is what comes from someone who doesn’t have anything to lose by abandoning these platforms. Yes, you can stop using big tech platforms and controlling your data, what’s the reality of doing that? Who are you making videos for and whose videos are you seeing? Can you get all of your friends and family to use Mastodon? Do they want to? How about sharing pictures of your kids with your parents?

None of the big tech solutions are good, but they are where people are.
