Something to help lead people to the Fediverse

I modified a image I saw going around last year on Global Switch Day
https://old.reddit.com/r/solarpunk/comments/1ijmkc0/make_the_switch_away_from_meta/
Perhaps we could use it to make people aware of Reddit alternatives etc. If you can imporve upon the image please do so, and feel free to use it.
I just threw it together in KolourPaint in a few min.
Keep in mind ostentatious posturing about alleged belief in free speech e.g. hyperbolic use of terms like "Social Credit Score" or repetition of common copytext/keywords "echo chamber" is not universally perceived as a good thing.
If you've ever lived in a country where people understand the value of free speech (without constant tedious self-aggrandization on this topic) this stuff comes off as childish.
When I say "understanding the value of free speech", I mean the understanding that free speech includes the ability to choose your moderation policies depending on context.
Again, framing this issue as "promotion of ideology" is not going to fly.
Believe it or not, but having a sidebar with "Misinformation & disinformation" is not as big of a thing as you think it is. I would even argue that "COVID skeptics" wouldn't give a shit about it because they actually understand the meaning of the term "promotion of ideology".
You're welcome to assume I am misinformed, I hate free speech or I am being malicious. Whatever works, I am just sharing a different perspective (from someone who lived in the US and does not find American-style freedom polemics to be in the least convincing).
