  3. Comparisons to Reddit are ok. We know the reasons for the differences, but this is just about expressing yourself

    1. We already have a solution for this with tcp/ip with resiliency in the communication chain. Make the communities duplicated across servers and any server has a copy of the community.
    2. This is definitely an issue but maybe a mod would only be able to control via voting with other mods for that community across servers? Make it more democratic than autocratic? Mod actions should be public too. No working in the shadows allowed.
    3. You see this in gaming. People looking for interaction all swarm to the busy servers and you’ll see dozens of servers all barely in use. Maybe your login should be load balanced and redirected to low use servers.

    Agree it isn’t simple. “We want control without control”

      1.- That would make Lemmy servers ultra unsafe to host. Server owners would not be able to moderate content hosted in their machine. It would make a good distributed solution, but not a federated one.

      Maybe we’d prefer a centralized organization, with distributed resources. But seeing the defederation drama every week, it doesn’t look the path anyone wants to follow.
