    Reddit sucks. Let’s make our own reddit with blackjack and hookers.

    Result: there are now 15 competing reddit knockoffs. Each one is small and lonely.

    Solution: let the reddit knockoffs talk to each other. This solves the problem of a fractured userbase. This was always reddit’s strength: disparate communities united, on the same site. This size and diversity meant there was a high likelihood of someone who knows what they’re talking about or someone with a unique perspective stumbling across the post and chiming in.

    By understanding the motivation, hopefully the concept of “Federation” makes more sense.

      That’s a really good way of explaining the fediverse. Nice one!
