There are a large number of unanswered questions about the Fediverse. I don’t just mean questions that users may have, but questions for which no suitable answer exists yet. Some are extremely abstract and existential like “will the Fediverse survive the next decade?” Other questions are very concrete like, “What is the copyright status of a federated post?” or “What are the moral implications of federating content that may be harmful or recording a crime?”

I wonder, for those of you who stay up nights thinking about the Fediverse, which question is the most important to you?

    Why is this a burning question? I see a lot of people complain about ml, but I haven’t had any issues with users or their communities; though the latter I’ve had sparing interactions with.

      They advocate voting abstinence and voting third party a lot. That’s a view that has been connected with Russian propaganda ops designed to put Trump in the White House.

      Same. For every 1 .ml interaction that the have, I get 9 other randos aggressively telling me how aggressive .ml is. It’s irony at its finest tbh.
