Decentralized control is probably the biggest asset we have to fight back against these issues. Each instance host has motivation to keep their community in the best shape possible, for users and visitors.

If one instance is having struggles, you can migrate to another - and instance hosts could share tactics and information about the process of management.

Decentralization is more adaptable and brings resilience.

It is easier to compromise one instance, but it is a lot harder to compromise all of them. Meanwhile for centralized social media, if the one is compromised all is compromised.
