Alex Chapman@FediFollows@social.growyourown.services @robinince@mastodon.social Oof he joined the big one, when we should be choosing smaller instances instead of feeding the monopoly of mastodon.social, and if Robin is keeping up with these threads, for context I'm talking about a thread from @FediTips@social.growyourown.services about how the fact most people joining the flagship instance is creating a situation where its kinda defeating the object of the fediverse, which is that it is a decentralised network.

Let's not overwhelm him with details, he's only just joined 🙂
The people to criticise about mastodon.social are Mastodon gGmbH for promoting it so heavily, not the new people who think they're supposed to sign up there.
Alex Chapman@FediTips@social.growyourown.services Good point, the folks developing the official apps should stop using them to constantly promote mastodon.social, eventually I wanna make a mobile version of this Mastodon client/social messenger/put some things in one app kinda thing, and I would make sure that its not just promoting one server, but a rotating selection.
