“The successor to mass social media is emerging not as a single platform, but as a scattering of alleyways, salons, encrypted lounges and federated town squares — those little gardens. (…) Occasionally we may wander back, out of habit or nostalgia, or to converse once more as a crowd, among the ruins. But as social media collapses on itself, the future points to a quieter, more fractured, more human web, something that no longer promises to be everything, everywhere, for everyone.”
