    Even more than defederating, it’s in the hands of users. If people were to flood in from somewhere with bad intentions, it would likely be from one or two servers. At that point, just block those servers/communities from your view and continue about your day

      But what if those servers/instances are the ones which has quality communities in it and what if the users and owners of those communities refuse to migrate to new server/instance? Wouldn’t that be the same case of reddit where the user base is split and the new migrated server/instance needs building again?

        DING DING DING. Here’s Facebook’s playbook:

        1. Create close sourced ActivityPub implementation to federate with mastodon/lemmy and gain users.
        2. Offer better experience than competition via exclusive features, reliability, more communities, etc.
        3. Once enough users have been obtained, completely defederate from fediverse.
