"It's OK if the number of secondary fediverse services¹ is much less than the number of accounts or the number of primary account services², as long as it's much more than one."
¹ for example: people search, text search, tag search, bridges, groups, reposters
² for example: Mastodon, Friendica, Pixelfed, Pleroma instances
So, this was my least enjoyable poll so far.
We don't have great terminology on the fediverse for account services and other kinds of services. So a lot of people didn't get the question.
But also, the question really is, how many of a particular kind of service do we need for a healthy fediverse?
Four options might be:
- 0
- 1
- much more than 1 and much less than the number of Mastodon instances
- the number of Mastodon instances
Most folks don't think about this kind of question, though.
My least enjoyable poll ever was this one on Twitter, where I had lots of people telling me you can't learn from books.
