Man do you know how many instances exist? I hate this idea of trying to coordinate defederation across all bigger instances all at once. You have the option of migrating to an instance which is already defederated from them, or hosting your own instance and defederating from whoever you want. You can also mute them. Don’t come to a decentralized network with the expectation of imposing centralized decision making behaviour?
This is the fediverse and that is their instance. You just move to another instance and mute them if you are desatisfied with them.
No, big corp with millions of users they cannot moderate defeats the purpose of a fediverse.
I’ve heard people run it for single users easily even on free tier hosting, like Oracle’s.
Cool, that’s good to know. Thanks!
I think fediverse platforms could have the option to call for a vote in defederating.
Meaning, idk, users who have been active for the past X months on the instance get notified about the admins wanting to defederate from some instance, then the users get to check out the instance themselves and vote yes or no to defederate.
To be clear, I am not saying this should be “mandatory”, I am saying instance admins could have the option to call for a vote if and when they want to.
So you could decide to join an instance that vows to go the democratic way if you want to. Nothing would bind the admins to always call for a vote except their own word tho. Or you could not care about it at all and join an instance that also doesn’t care.
I also would like to get notified whenever the instance I’m in defederates from another instance, and have an easily accessible list of all instances that we have defederated from.
That’s a good idea
Maybe some browser extension for like firefox mobile?
Incoming a bunch of clickbait and fake advertisement about paid content that a bunch of redditors will pay for to access, and then realize the content isn’t there, isn’t what they thought it would be or isn’t worth paying for / is shit.
