So is it the plan that there will be very limited matodon servers that only federate with a subset of the whole?

Like, will electrical engineers have a mastodon instance? Or is that pointless?

@Elucidating It seems self-defeating, honestly - part of the draw of a platform like this is to make new info available for everyone. We just need better ways of organizing it, like lists

@loather As I've said in some other tootootooTOOOOOOOOTs it may actually be a feature that information has a slower propagation speed across these networks.

The notion of an instantly connected global social medium is one only Twitter and advertisers seem to propose.
