· Föderation EN Do 26.06.2025 09:01:25 I think I changed my position in time. But this is for people that happen to know already the advantages of a decentralized network. I think new users, in the account creation process, should land to mastodon.social or anyway a predefined default server/group of servers. They will have the freedom to move later on, if they remain active users, if they care. This could be represented graphically leaving a default that's so natural to accept if you are in a hurry, like everyone trying a new thing is. Medien: 2 |
Föderation EN Do 26.06.2025 14:19:25 I totally understand, and it's fine to direct new people to a "default" server so they don't get overwhelmed with choice. The problem is if that default is the largest server, because it centralises the network and puts it in danger. If JoinMastodon and the official apps could direct new people to another reliable server (and then rotate this default regularly) this would solve most of the problems. That kind of default rotation is how Nextcloud's onboarding works, for example. |
