I used to think that there would be 1, main 'Fediverse' with all of the 'big instances' connected to each other. The recent Threads debacle has shown me otherwise.

The point of the Fediverse is that there is no one single entity, or group of entities, dominating it all.

Right now it feels like whatever the big instances do, we kind of have to go along with to be a part of anything. As the Fediverse grows, there will be more options to suit different types of users.

I think it's fine if big instances federate with Threads and it's fine if they don't. People can just join instances that align with what they want. It's not like defederating means being cut out of the Fediverse, that's not possible.

Great design. I'm eager to see how it plays out.

For someone with so much time to go to classes at community colleges, surely you can spare some minutes to run your own instance, no?

Here you go. Go create your own instance and show us how it is done.

I'm not going to a community college hahaha. I'm working on my Master's in counseling.

Just thought that a critical thinking course may help you with your 4th grade level logic/arguments.

The fact that you missed the sarcasm and doubled down by leaning on your credentials is a-do-ra-ble.
