Well this is alarmist. I haven’t read the ActivityPub spec or code but the main failing in the current implementation of Mastodon is the codebase is not conducive to horizontal scaling. There will probably be work in that domain sooner or later. Or it’ll never really take off. Either way I like how it’s small and niche. Let the normals stay on Twitter and they can keep the advertisers, too. Moderation is done by users of a node or a server admin or admins. And from what I can see admins block on a node level and users can block folks at the user or a whole subdomain/node.
