People prefer centralized services until they enshittify, after which people move to the next thing, thanks to the decentralization.

> people move to the next thing, thanks to the decentralization
This does not quite follow. Care to explain more? What I observe in practice is that people move from one centralized service to the next centralized service (e.g., X->BlueSky) but rarely from centralized to decentralized.
Most services aren't decentralized, but the Internet itself is decentralized, which allows to set up these independent services that can compete with each other.
Google, Meta and so on are not dying.
So whats your point fella?
It might be slow for the megacorps, which don't even try to follow laws, but
