@abucci It's exactly what I have a problem with things like IPFS, Matrix, ActivityPub-based things and so on... They lure users into a false sense of security by claiming to be "centralised" when in fact they are really "distributed" and border-line "centralised" anyway 😢

It's such a fine subtle point that it's easy to miss. But it all comes down to "control" and who/what makes decisions. If you or your software are not making the decisions (e.g:publishing a line to your twtxt feed is your decision) -- Then its NOT "decentralised".

@prologic it’s exactly for that I like twtxt protocol.
