Personally I favor destruction and replacement of the corporate web over the hypothetical integrity of a non facebook shitpost internet, and the former requires mass adoption. Whatever people happen to care about and prefer, that's what is there to work with, and taking an instrumental approach to getting their attention and building their habits is how mass social media adoption was achieved.

That said, I'm reading about Reticulum and it looks like the first thing it's trying to be is an underlying software library that other applications can be built on top of, and has pretty sensible priorities, so it's fine if a really streamlined user experience for it doesn't exist yet, that doesn't need to be the very first step.
