That's a legit issue with these federated social media sites. The whole idea is to avoid one entity having too much power, but it splinters the discussions and the communities in a way that inhibits them.
How do we know a better gaming discussion isn't happening some place else?
How does a company interact with fans and grow its brand without spamming every single gaming community on the fediverse?
Not sure what the solutions are, but maybe that's the point? We're trying to usher in the older days of internet communities. Smaller, closer forums.
