But why would I build a new decentralized Twitter "simply" (it's the HN go-to "I could build that in a weekend" that none of us could build half of in a year if we were actually trying to clone actual Twitter) when all of the money and control is in the centralized version?

Also, if the best example you have is "you can make easily decentralized Twitter after you learn all of our brand new replacement technologies for the things that you're already familiar with" then I don't think that's much of a value proposition.

Also also, come on - "applications will resolve around users"? Great catchphrase, but what does that even mean? Like we don't have product teams already trying to build things people want?
