@CobaltVelvet Good post. Making the case for the confederation.
—
It is worth noting that a federation has mandatory inclusion. You cant leave.The united states is a good example of this.
—
A confederation does allow "states", in our case instances, to enter and leave at will.
—
What we really want is the confediverse.
@NthTensor that's mostly because the US has federal law and organization, our federation is based on the common protocols so we can still be federated even without federating with everyone.
But then the whole concept is federation is about limited centralization, so we're already pretty far :p
