#fediverse
If #twitter allowed federation, would you federate with it?
@houkimenator I could allow it in silenced mode but not in public
@houkimenator if this occurs, it is quite likely that tweeter is smarter about it than just adding a single federation endpoint to their entire platform. I'd rather not see it happen at all.. we'll grow on our own terms and speed.
@houkimenator most of people voted "no", but why not?
@houkimenator@mastodon.technology A single instance that big would probably kill most instances with it's traffic as it currently stands. Mine included. We would need a lot of protocol improvements for small personal servers to handle such traffic.
@houkimenator it would just be mentally unhealthy people who are chronically upset and misinterpret things in the worst way possible because of the way engagement algorithms condition people.
@houkimenator I wouldn't mind, and block it on my personal user-level.
