I think it should. Has it defederated and does it plan to?

    No, it should not. IMO, defederation is toxic for the fediverse. One of the major advantages of the fediverse is that you don’t have a walled garden. Don’t try to make one.

      Defederation is not toxic, it’s an essential tool. The ability to choose what kind of contents and account you can see is one of the best part of decentralised social networks.

        Sure, but that’s why the user can choose to ignore instances/communities…?

      One of the major advantages of user controlled communities is that your community can decide on what is allowed, like having rules about not tolerating intolerance. How is that toxic?

      Also its pretty easy to join multiple instances and have a few accounts if you want.

        Sure, but if you need several accounts just to be able to participate globally, how is that better than non-federated networks?
