Introduction
1. Background Agreeing with the terms and conditions of big centralized tech companies is inevitable, you are either in or out and we are not aware of what it takes to make us feel connected. Being online is a demand for being public, to create an audience and have a bigger reach. Small communities move to different platforms to fight surveillance and to test new alternatives to centralization. but sill I have always debated on why do users that move from Twitter to Mastodon feel the need to make cross-platform posts. Being a big technology enthusiast, from free software projects to big releases I didn't usually think before trying, buying or consuming. From a growing interest in the Piet Zwart around digital culture, I became more aware and critical on the topic.
