To the newcomers to the fediverse. Don’t let the last few days or even the next few be your only impression on this. When we all came over from twitter it was a shit show and nothing worked right because everything was overwhelmed. Give it a few days. It’ll get better.

    Allowing users to migrate as seamlessly as possible between instances is just an important part of making decentralization really effective too — it only really means something that it’s possible to move to a different instance with a different culture and set of rules, norms, moderation style, etc, without losing access to the network as a whole if it’s easy to do so, because only then does it become a real possibility for counterbalancing the power of any given instance.
