Stop doing Discord
- capitalists were not supposed to own your community
- Years of hanging out yet no real-world use found for sending your private data to be sold to advertisers
- Wanted to leak private data anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that; it was called "turning off ublock origin"
- "Yes please search our chat archive for answers to your question. it will certainly remain up forever and not get deleted when the shareholders realize it's not profitable" statements dreamed up by the utterly deranged
Look at what discord admins have been demanding your respect for all this time:
- task manager screenshot, discord using 97% of CPU
- discord making too many automated requests and getting throttled
- crash screenshot
"3rd-party client? lifetime ban"
They have played us for absolute fools

Everything you said is true. But the capitalists own the Internet service providers and cellular carriers. If you know a "federated cellular operator," let me know and I'll hook you up right away. However, there is no such thing. So we get another illusion of freedom in a beautiful package.
I don’t know of any community cell carriers, but co-op ISPs are a thing. Toronto Freenet was probably the first ISP I ever used (stretching the term a bit, since it was more of a BBS service at the time if I remember correctly), and it looks like it’s still going relatively strong.
For the life of me I can't find it but years ago there was a push for the internet to adopt a new standard that was fully run on individuals' wifi board in their computers. It was Japanese if I remember right. I'll try to find it.
