@Oregon_Pacifist I think the real issue is that folks come over to mastodon from places like X/Twitter and other mainstream social media platforms and don't understand how a federated system works so those folks just move over to mastodon.social because they don't know any better. I never joined that instance not just because a good chunk of the mastodon community would be lost if mastodon.social ever went down, but also because I felt it could be a potential cesspool since anyone could join it
