It's just the way federations work. I think a lot of people are worried because it's a new type of social media with a different structure. You don't have to rely on one place anymore to socialize online, you can pick and choose what you want to connect to. If you don't like one style, you can pick another style. The thing that worries me is whether or not there different styles will continue to exist or if one entity will monopolize everything. The nice thing is that most modern democratic countries have laws about monopolies and they do in fact work. Several monopolies have been avoided or eliminated in the past.
