That highlights the need for open data and federation, because while it'd be quite simple to create a replacement for that app, the value is in the network effects (the more users the better) and the accumulated data. Time to federate our network effects!

It's frustrating how late stage capitalism also ruins lots of cool apps, and I'm not talking of Twitter/Reddit, but simple things like Instabridge, which was a simple way to share and find the password of public WiFi hotspots (eg. from cafes). Now the app also tries to also be your mobile browser, your VPN, your home screen, etc, and shows you a video advert right after your contribute a password... 😶
