"The Fediverse is for making us happy."
@evan neither agree nor disagree. The Fediverse is for whatever one makes of it. I hope that its net effect makes people more happy, but would we say that's what it's *for*?
@Brendanjones @evan Agreed, but that's a part of what makes me personally pretty happy with it.
@Brendanjones the fediverse is a constructed object, and it was constructed for a purpose.
@evan Ah, but for what purpose was it constructed? (He asks one of the founders of the Fediverse, hoping for a profound and insightful answer )
@Brendanjones well, mostly as a prank, tbh.
@evan Quite the elaborate prank, then haha.
And who is being pranked, pray tell?
@Brendanjones siloed social networks, of course!
