    I think its a numbers game. If fediverse had the numbers it would be plagued with all the same issues. But its a little fish in a big pond.

      If a Fediverse instance grew so big that it couldn’t moderate itself and had a lot of spam/Nazis, presumably other instances would just defederate, yeah? Unless an instance is ad-supported, what’s the incentive to grow beyond one’s ability to stay under control?
