    Not having a central authority means you have no real power to stop someone

    This is demonstrating the exact opposite. Community organization is valid.

      But… the majority are federated? And if counted by affected users I don’t even know how large they federated majority is since the biggest instances are all federated iirc.

      Either way I think it’s good that we can at least choose our own experience by selecting which instance to join.

      We’ll see. I don’t think you can beat a 100 Billion dollar company with 3 Billion users if they are motivated enough.

        I mean they haven’t infiltrated the private phpbb forum me and my friends have been running since 2008, for the simple reason that they aren’t invited.

        Same difference with the fediverse. I have no problem going back down to pre-2019 levels where it’s just a few hundred of us, chatting and sharing #caturday pictures. The fedipact means we can easily find those networks of like-minded communities to federate with.
