This comment is such virtue signalling to me "oh no, I don't understand how federation works and so I'll invent a strawman argument so I can pretend to be clever, for shame!" - well, you're still not understanding the app, the platform, you're still inventing the strawman. Unless you bother to research even slightly them, which you can also do on the internet.

It's just weird to me.

Right, so you just don't want Fediverse to ever replace things like Reddit or Twitter? Remain within a margin of error in their user count? Got it. My bad for assuming we, the early adopters, were trying to get this thing off the ground and become an actual threat to the capitalist pigs.
