I think because the federation isn't profit motivated it won't become enshittified which is what drives people away.

I know it will get better and evolve. I'm excitied to see how it evolves over time.

    That's my hope as well. If an instance starts to behave sketchy, users can pack up and leave without losing access to the wider network.

    Plus, there's no incentive for Instances to endlessly grow. A lot of toxic behavior on social media stems from the fact that toxicity breeds engagement.
