    Yeah, I actually like this concept. The fediverse has the power to be much larger, but it doesn’t have to be for any group that wants to keep things small.

    I also kind of like how the fediverse has space for just the worst, most bigoted folks to fuck around and find out here. If they run away to rumble or truth social or whatever alternative they’re trying this week, they can stay in their little bubbles and pretend they’re the real popular voices, at least until it inevitably implodes.

    In the fediverse, they can see the federation graphs, they can read the defederation announcements, and they can start to see exactly where they stand in popular opinion. I think that’s got to have an effect on them long term. The paid shills can try to deny reality from their followers, but it’s harder.
