That may have been some time ago? The team has been larger than just Eugen for quite a while now. In terms of "won't be compatible with the majority of AP implementations", is there a specific PR that has been changed to make something incompatible? I'm not sure I understand what you are describing. I'd love to know where we can improve, here.

We are big fans of them!
Completely agree that this "feels like" a centralisation vector. That's not the intent of it, and if you read the blog post we make it clear that we want many Mastodon servers, everywhere, rather than one organisation hosting them all. This is to do two things - 1) get us a more sustainable financial foundation that is less dependent on grant cycles and 2) enable the larger institutions (EU Commission being an existing example) to get set up on the Fediverse.
Can confirm there are no plans for this to happen or be attempted. We're getting the new European non-profit worked out (more news soon), no changes to the licensing.
pretty sure the answer is no, specific hardware only.
We chose not to add an image for quote posts because you cannot create and post them in Mastodon yet, and the number of other Fediverse servers that implement the relevant FEP is limited, so it would be over promising what you’ll see in 4.4 - the full feature is set for 4.5.
The plan is to fully implement this by Mastodon 4.5 later in the year.

(OK, now I see the issue you're describing in the other comment)
As you can see, there are a lot of issues that we need to triage and work through. We do our best to be clear about what is being worked on, and what is not - we've also posted a revised roadmap for some better visibility on where we are spending resources. I take your point, however - we need to improve here. Thanks.
