What is a metaverse? I believe it is a virtual universe, where anything can happen! A place of magic and fun and joy. Just like the real universe the metaverse has many planets (grids) and thanks to the wonderful and amazing work of Sir Fred Beckheusen, the creator of dreamgrid, now anyone can have their own entire planet!
There are currently well over 7,000 planets (grids) in the metaverse! It is more populated than we realize. People from other countries with their own customs, languages, and beliefs have set up their own worlds, for others to explore.
I believe this trend will continue and people will spread out farther than ever before creating their own unique places and leaving an indelible mark of their existence upon the virtual cosmos! A complete decentralization of power and authority. No longer subject to the laws of the lindens and secondLife. No one place having authority over all the others. Everyone is free to explore thousands of worlds and make new friends.
With that said, you may also make a few enemies, but it doesn't matter, even if you get banned from an entire world, there are many thousands more out there... I have been exploring worlds of people I never knew existed, meeting new people, and making new friends.
The metaverse is a new frontier, a decentralized place created for us, and there is room enough in it for everyone, regardless of race, color, sex, sexual preferences, disabilities, and other separatist categories.
Thanks to Fred's brilliant work, setting up a grid in windows is as easy as clicking a button, and filling out a few questions. If you would like to set up your own dreamgrid, or grid on linux and need any help, I will help you. Just find me and send me an IM.

There are far more small independent grids and mini-grids and not to mention standalones than there are big grids. The days of the big grids are coming to an end in my opinion. Zetaworlds for example has pretty much just isolated themselves by blocking most small and independent grids. It's their users who suffer for it. Most people when they come to Opensim start in a big grid but then most of the time move on and start their own one. Like you say using Dreamgrid on your home pc is so simple, why anyone would want to entrust their assets and inventory to big grids when they can take ownership of them for themselves is beyond me, but hey ho each to their own.
Like you I think decentralisation is the answer.

Thank you for recognizing the brilliance of Fred Beckhusen, he helped me to realize my own world. A place where I can be myself and create. Big thanks to Ferd Frederix!!
