The reason corporate social media sucks is its monopolistic nature. “Instance wars” are why lemmy is better than reddit, which consists of exactly one instance.

Yeah, right. That totally makes Lemmy better. It's so pleasant to always bicker and threaten to defederate from each other. It's also so unlike Reddit where Subreddits brigade each other and have sub wars. Lemmy is so unique in that... /s

What we need is a strongman to come along and tell everyone what to do.

It’s so inefficient to have these different instances defederating from one another. We should prevent defederation and make it illegal to have redundant instances.

There should be a Chief Efficiency Overlord to make all this happen.
