I don't see enough talk of how the fediverse is structurally resistant to external power.
here, corporations and governments don't have any central node to pressure to suppress activity that conflicts with their interests. they could at most pressure one instance at a time, but there's no way to ever get their way across the entire fediverse at once.
the importance of this feature is tremendous.
@abgd Beware, though, network can be broken by targeted attack of the biggest nodes.
@8zu yes but the powerful always prefer to control dissent. wiping it out can create too much backlash. and while they can break the network temporarily, they can't wipe it out altogether.
