Isn't that a bit of hyperbole? If it was turning into what you said we'd be seeing a far greater amount of servers than we are.

The point of the fediverse is decentralization. That means if you have a predominant rigid viewpoint you can find an instance that shares that view. I don't think at the current state of development that the fediverse can have a dominating instance that connects everything. It's up to you to create a community you feel is missing on the instance you've settled in if no other federated instances have that community.

We've proven through Facebook, Reddit, and Twitter that we suck at communicating across groups on social media and are more interested in insulting whoever disagrees with us than communicatimg effectively.

That being said the Fediverse is young. Things aren't perfect. It's still less censored than almost any other social media platforms aside from 4chan and I'd urge you to use that if you are looking for anti-censorship.

For myself, I've picked out a dozen instances and I drift between them all while I figure this out. I treat it just like my half dozen alt accounts I had on RiF.

  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
