This is the elephant in the room with federation that supports instances of 1 or 1 million. The ones with 1 million become the mini Facebooks with mini Mark Zuckerbergs; infinitely more powerful than the instances of 1 or 100 and unaccountable to anyone but themselves. Decentralisation is about devolution of power. There’s a reason I’m designing the Small Web as a peer-to-peer web with only instances of one.

@aral yeah, that is a real problem as we could see with #TheBadSpace and the toxic folks behind it.
I hope @rzeta0 appealed that decision!
@aral Pretty wild, considering the amount of absolute filth they allow on there unchallenged.

@happyborg Will check it out, thanks. Although I don’t understand how it needs no server. (No need to waste your time explaining, I’ll look into it.) :)
@aral I mean no remote server, hosting etc. You install dweb, run 'dweb serve' and so you do have a local server.
@happyborg Ah, gotcha, makes more sense :)
