@slowlygoingsane there are plenty of people with much larger channels than mine that explain things better than I could

@Judeau Yeah that's not a bad idea. Too many people that migrate over from X and other sites think that mastodon.social IS the Mastodon platform. The concept of decentralization is completely foreign to them.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but the instance mastodon.social is 30% of the entire #Fediverse. If it ever goes down for any reason, a huge chunk of the Fediverse will go down.

It defeats the purpose of having a fully decentralized network if most people pile into a single instance.
