Many people, including myself, disagree with Moxie's stance towards decentralization.

I wrote a blog post comparing Signal's approach to the approach taken by many decentralized networks: https://snikket.org/blog/products-vs-protocols/

And others have written their own:

- An Objection to "The Ecosystem is Moving": https://gultsch.de/objection.html

- "Have you considered the alternative?" https://homebrewserver.club/have-you-considered-the-alternat...

- "Re. The Ecosystem is Moving": https://blog.jabberhead.tk/2019/12/29/re-the-ecosystem-is-mo...

Decentralized networks can certainly move. They may not usually move as fast as a centralized one can, but that does not make reliance on a central entity a good alternative.

Okay, but Moxie has actually produced a secure and usable messaging system, based on his stance. Have any of the people who disagree with him gone ahead and produced something that proves their viewpoint?
