I strongly disagree.

It’s indeed an important sign the fediverse is growing organically and attracting people outside the niche.

I’d really like to see Lemmy compatibile server implementation and I don’t care if they make the code closed source or you have to pay to register. The idea of the fediverse is exactly tho be open to diverse philosophies.

For the very same reason I’m glad threads will be federate with the rest of the fediverse. Don’t like that particular instance? Don’t use it, just like you don’t use a website you don’t like despite them using the same standard as everyone else

You can make identification decentralized/distributed too

Just in a different way so that it is unequivocal

That’s is one of major Lemmy flaw IMHO

They should have separated identification and content. Make a unified id system and then let people host their own communities on the federated level.

This would have been expecially important as you can’t really move your account among instances, and would have make the registration process also much easier for normal users who just want to use the platform

Honestly even some environmentalists over here are against wind turbines because they say they are “unnatural” and as such they shouldn’t have a place in woods and natural landscapes.

So at this point I’m starting to think we’re doomed and fuck everything
