I suspect that key to the future of the fediverse is likely to be a more efficient piece of software than mastodon.

  I expect very large servers will be commercially operated and running bespoke software. When Tumblr adds ActivityPub support, it will be the largest Fediverse instance by far.

      They announced it, oddly enough on Twitter. Techcrunch reported it, among others. Flickr is also considering it. https://techcrunch.com/2022/11/21/tumblr-to-add-support-for-activitypub-the-social-protocol-powering-mastodon-and-other-apps/ https://techcrunch.com/2022/11/21/tumblr-to-add-support-for-... https://twitter.com/donmacaskill/status/1594945727255699457 https://twitter.com/donmacaskill/status/1594945727255699457

    It will probably immediately cause those directly upstream to find some new bottlenecks in their implementation.
