Food for thought...

Think of Mastodon social media the same way you think about email.

Imagine if schools, governments and companies had there own instances. Mastodon could replace how email is used in many situations and could become a default communication method for group interactions. You'd have your work masto and your personal masto, just like email. Every entity would own its own data.

@mastodonmigration Yep, and just like email you use the full address (including the @ domain name/instance) when contacting somebody else, you can communicate with other domains/instances from any other (bar blocklists/spamlists) and you could just have one email account/Mastodon account in the world or multiple dependent on preference (work, social, special interests etc). Once you imagine Mastodon as "instant public email", it makes it a lot easier.
@rbairwell @mastodonmigration ooh, "instant public email" So succinct! Thank you ☺️
