&gt; Facebook goes the way of Yahoo and MySpace<p>That is already happening. The majority is there only because of the messaging aspect.<p>A whole plethora of messaging services are gaining traffic. Next thing that follow in them is &quot;smart AI&quot; for content with &quot;bots&quot; and then we&#x27;ll reinvent what Asian messengers already offer for years.<p>But convincing an user of $chat with decentralization and federation is laughable, until :<p>1) he gets a good reason for current $chat to not be as good,<p>2) his network flocks away to something else.<p>Don&#x27;t want to be pissing on anyone&#x27;s parade here, but this Akasha Project is currently putting a cart before the horse.
