That's not really an issue though; or at least, I'm not yet convinced it's one. We're here because we don't want to have compatibility with Reddit, and I'm on Mastodon because I don't want to have compatibility with Twitter.

    We're here

    Are we though? Because it looks like you're on kbin and I'm on slrpnk.

    If either one of our instances decides to implement proprietary features that Threads creates (the second E in EEE) and the other one doesn't, that could break the experience of us being "here" together.

    And we're free to move to another instance that has the access, or lack thereof, that we want.

    Yup, thus fragmenting the crap out of the fediverse (the last E)

    I always saw that as a feature, not a bug. The feature that prevents it from being the last E.

    If you see massive fragmentation as a feature then I really don't know what to tell you.

    I guess enjoy?

    I'm a Linux user. That "fragmentation" is probably a good reason for why that hasn't been extinguished either. So as far as I can tell, yes, I'll enjoy the resilience that that implies without fear of it being extinguished.

    I really don't think that's a meaningful comparison.

    Federation relies on unity -- fragmentation ruins that.
