Personally I think that if there was like a central link/front end to access everything and then have each user be able to have a recommended list of instances/hosts to access would be a more user friendly solution and a better solution for search engines. I know the fediverse is about decentralization but having a central front end and decentralized back end seems easier for new users. And then for the back ended hosting aspect each host would be able to manually pick which instances or communities to host and mirror. I’d like to hear your ideas since I have no idea what I’m talking about.
Yeah this is a good way of looking at it. The main reason I made this post was after seeing some more fediverse drama I kinda figured it sucks for large instances to have a lot of power with defeding from smaller ones to shut them down super easily. From what I understand it’d be like if Gmail prevented people from sending email to people on Hotmail or something.
