Why do the instances keep going down? It makes me think that this is not a reliable social network, but the alternatives are not as good.
It’s literally like thinking anne@outlook.com and anne@hotmail.com is the same person. :)
I mean slightly bad example since Microsoft migrated a bunch of their hotmail users to outlook addresses hahahaha. But yeah. I especially feel that way about people who want all !news communities to just be aggregated together when that doesn’t actually make sense when you think about it for more than a second. !news@beehaw.org and !news@ttrpg.net don’t actually have much in common, in terms of what they’re about. I know !news@ttrpg.net doesn’t actually exist, but it feasibly could exist as a community for discussing table top role playing game news, like if Dungeons and Dragons has a big new release of material or something
Oh they did… Yeah I don’t know about microsoft these days, I don’t follow what they are doing. :) But yeah, just making a point.
I think it makes sense to use the fediverse in a semi-anonomous way and not strive for centralized login systems since it will lead to being tracked.
