This only solves the problem for you. It doesn't solve the problem for the community, nor does it scale well (if everyone does it, then you're just gonna repeat the same dance over and over).

I mean if the users of one big instance would be on 100 smaller ones, it would provide a more granular ability to defederate.

I'm only pointing out that the whole idea of the Fediverse would be to register wherever, where you feel "at home" with like-minded users instead of just making an account at the biggest server, as that makes managing the network untenable.

I'm just saying this is one of the reasons there shouldn't be a "big 4" of instances. Especially as the Beehaw guys seem to be acting out their powermod fantasies.
