The ideal way that ActivityPub federation works IMO is a bunch of smaller nodes coming together to make a large network.
If you have a bunch of people all on one or two instances then you’ll have a “central hub” of the network that’s constantly overloaded.
That’s my advice to community builders on this platform… Spread out across smaller instances, don’t just all sign up to a big one.
Ok but invite who? Any new moderators can see how you treat the current ones. Who the fuck is lining up to get treated like shit to moderate a major website for FREE?
