I agree with most of what I've seen re: #ForkOff. Garg really needs to accept that this hasn't been his personal project for a while now and he has to hand over some aspects of power if he's serious about Mastodon continuing to grow as an anti-abuse-focused part of the Fediverse.

But when it comes to federation, I'm confused how much of the #ForkOff crowd is just tired of delusional FOSS fanboy dreams of defeating Twitter, and how many people have contempt for the notion of federation at all, because I don't think Garg refusing to budge on federation is at all unreasonable. If you're in the latter camp, you'd be better served with a personalized, centralized social network. Maybe there can be a fork for that.
