The Dutch non-profit Land van Ons (Land of Us) sent a letter to Murk Zorkerburg: "Please stay the hell of our lawn with your hyperscale datacenters", and will send these letters to the other FAANG, GAFAM, GMAFIA.
The Dutch are way behind on sustainable energy, and these #BigTech are building data centers where each single one of them consumes the energy equivalence of a city like Amsterdam.
Here's the PDF of that letter: https://landvanons.nl/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Meta-english-version.pdf
🎉 Fediverse.Party and its Wiki finally finished migration to a new home!
Our code repository can be found at Codeberg:

Honoured to be part of @codeberg community.
What device do you generally use (most often) to access Fedi?
I use a laptop. :-)
Proof is in the pudding.
Not to worry though, GitHub's days as a forge are almost over. Soon it will be relegated to little more than a directory (search engine) for projects, once #Gitea completes their ForgeFed / ForgeFlux #ActivityPub #Federation integration (Now in limited release) which will obsolete the #monolithic_silo, leaving GitHub little more than a place-holder with README.mg files to locate FOSS repos elsewhere on Federated forge servers that are horizontally scaled in the #Fediverse.

Also we need to ebrace "failure". For often the definition of "success" is owned by our opponents and their cybernetic machines that count everything on Earth. Let's aim for quality not quantity!
"Failing" at getting quantity at anything is a step towards learning how to do it better, even if only for ourself.
Here again the main objective is to not *let ourselves be discouraged* by the machines-and-their-numbers of our opponents, who tell us when we "succeed" and when we "fail"!

The response by @staltz is correct, only a minority will contribute to a community but it's that active minority which makes communities possible.
The YouTube example is perfect: only a minority upload videos yet those are the videos the majority watches.
Moxie doesn't seem to realise (or perhaps doesn't want to admit) that human beings depend on an active community-spirited minority. Society isn't possible without such people.
You want people to run their own servers? Design and build servers for individuals, not communities and let communities arise from the interconnections between those servers.
Why?
Because that’s the only way we can compete on ease of use with centralised systems. Not by mimicking their complexity but by side-stepping it. There is orders of magnitude difference in complexity between a system designed to serve just one and one designed to serve one, two, or a hundred thousand.
