    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.
