Cool...
Right now all but one instance federates by default, if you're saying going in the complete opposite direction and only one federating by default would be a bad plan....
Yes, obviously it would be
Like almost everything else, it's not binary.
Some instances who don't care can leave the door open.
There's this weird insistence that "fediverse" all needs connected and agree on moderation, it doesn't. That's the entire point of it, that everyone has a wide selection of instances to choose from that do different things.
Not lashing them all together so that "admin" just means "power mod" and anytime there's a disagreement they get to have a slap fight over it.
Even if one person wants multiple flavors, alts are very easy to make. If you young or old enough to need an app for this, loads of them automate it
Oregon Trail in the middle can always handle multiple websites tho with their own passwords and logins. It's weird that's something to brag about now though. Thank James Cameron I guess.
