Cool can the big instances stop pretending the federation won't be faced with the same strategy as past technologies? This happens literally every time.
what past technologies?
email is federated... every corporation eventually joined in and runs an email server, email is still independent....
i would really like some examples because i've seen the claim before.
Email is kind of an oligopoly though, if you're not one of the big guys it can get pretty frustrating to run an email server. Even if you do everything right, sometimes you just get randomly blacklisted anyway, you're at the mercy of the big email providers.
makes sense...
personally, i see this as a flaw in federation in general. Even diaspora's end goal, originally, was everyone running their own instances.
the biggest hurdle though, is getting people to care. Which happens temporarily, every once in a while... like when reddit fucked everyone over with api changes.
i tried to get everyone i know on diaspora when that was happening... got one person to try it for a second. At least with lemmy i don't have to know anyone else on here, so it just feels like the better og reddit anyways...
