Fully decentralised Network: instance = user (programming.dev)

Just wanted to ask your opinion before I waste too much time in a new open source project that nobody wants.

Lemmy, Mastodon and Co are federated but users are concentrated on a few large instances which somewhat contradicts the original idea.

What do you think of a truly decentralised app where each instance is one user.

I am aware that there many reasons why this is a bad idea but I would like to hear from you why I should leave it, or encourage me to try it out.

Gotosocial is basically that.

I ended up going with akkoma for my instance, its not just for single user setups but its simpler then mastodon with more customizability.

Nostr is also something you might want to look into, its a pretty neat system.
