If my explanation is to complex you dont need to take my word for it.
Definitely watch this video: https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/user-liberation-watch-and-share-our-new-video
The way we the internet want to build the better system is called “web3” if you look this up youl find whole sites and even books written about it (but watch out for crypto scammers framing it)
Pretty much al you appear to be worried about comes from a web2 understanding of the internet.
The fediverse is supposed to be web3 in action. To me its more like a prototype.
It's not that it's complex. It's that before I lacked context and now my brain has moved on to other things for the moment.
Understandable, have a good day.
