RE: The Internet is Dead: Is Hive?

Thankyou! We are on way to coast for a coffee and almond croissant.
I know what you mean about being reluctant to decry modern tech in favour for a mournful lament for the good old days. I used to be an advocate for how tech could be used in the classroom, for example, using blogs and podcasts to encourage students voices. However, I'm now more a Luddite in that I can't help screaming about how tech is replacing the human - creativity, individuality - in favour of the corporate. Yes, we can overthrow if we all rally together (Australia currently trying to ban social media for kids under 14) but Godzilla is pretty unstoppable.
So, yes, Hive. It's the only place I can feel a modicum of joy and reminisce about 'the good old days' and be part of something that still feels like it's trying to be meaningful and for the people, despite its flaws.
