A poignant quote here
"It was a disaster so bad that a new word, Waldsterben, or “forest death,” was minted to describe the result. All the same species and age, the trees were flattened in storms, ravaged by insects and disease — even the survivors were spindly and weak. Forests were now so tidy and bare they were all but dead. "
It’s an interesting, useful analogy. My concern is that, like with nature, many fear the wild. The moment a rewilding of the internet might lead to a negative event, people would run and beg for the reinstament of walled gardens
That’s a good comparison I hadn’t honestly thought of! Thanks
I was really bummed that Filterworld by Kyle Chayka didn’t even mention reddit or lemmy and only barely mentioned Mastodon
