   Of what use is federating software if you cultivate a community no one wants to associate with?

     @purplehippo Yeah, that's exactly the thing missing from the Fediverse experience for me.

     @maiyannah Resilience. Communities can change, and a federated system doesn't have to be the "everyone stuck in my database" model of the silos.

     @bob A lot of that crowd seem to take "federating social media" as a license to bully other communities.

     @verius @bob This is, ultimately, my over-arching concern with that bad behaviour coming out of one instance in particular.  It's going to serve only to make people resistant to the idea of federation for fear of having to deal with this kind of unpleasantness.
