A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.
Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

I hope this trend reverses and doesn't spill over into Europe, Universities are some of the best mirrors for getting Linux distro packages
I was thinking the same thing, universities have historically been the main nodes on the internet because they had the largest data centers. Now that's all being replaced by MGA and schools redistribute more and more of the budget into athletics. If universities are still hosting mirrors but they're all virtual cloud servers in the same colo, I'm not sure how effective that is.
