The best thing that could ever happen to Mastodon is if someone, someday builds a great instance coupled with a great client and hardly anyone cares that it's built on Mastodon.
If that where to happen it would be the moment that Mastodon fulfills its true potential. #mastodon#fediverse
@mike I agree about the client. But a singular instance would lead to centralization, no?
What if the client made choosing an instance transparent, and made it less about choosing a server, and more about choosing an identity, like choosing an avatar, and a culture or community? And automatically distributed users across multiple instances (all of which satisfied some kind of stability/reliability/ethics criteria)?
@brent Does anyone care if a great website is built on WordPress and uses http. Not really. That's kind of what I'm getting at. I think we could emphasize community building over platforms and protocols.
