I’ve found it pretty easy to avoid with a bit of curation but I understand they’re a “necessary” evil that comes with every major user migration.

All the tasty data collection and surveillance with none of the calories.

Historical precedent and #2/#3 on my list above make the case for erring on the side of caution. That and we’ve got far more to lose than to gain.

Whichever way instances decide to go there’s a few things people should remember:

• We’re lucky to have this option even if it’s divisive at times.
• It’s not always about what we know will happen, sometimes it’s concern over possibilities we couldn’t even imagine at the time.
• Growth is great but there’s infrastructure, moderators and policies that can be overwhelmed.
• Defederation can be reversed at any time if things change.

Doesn’t seem to work in Thunder but that sounds handy otherwise.
