When framed as extremes in a false dichotomy, centralization seems the better option. In the reality of decentralized social media servers, thousands of community servers of various sizes rather than individuals make up most of the nodes and homes for people. In the current #Twittermigration, the biggest general servers are buckling from the mass inflows of members. More servers are easily springing up to provide new homes. The architects and maintainers of the fediverse anticipated the need to make setup and administration easy, but we were maybe not prepared for such a big pulse. Thanks for the boost Elon.
