Hyperlinks are the key to harnessing the FORCE unleashed by the #Web. Any platform that obscures this power does so for short-sighted reasons, aiming to limit user freedom.
Great platforms thrive by delivering quality service—not by resorting to enshittification-based lock-in.

Have something you want to add to the web platform? Do know where to go, who to talk to?
