@pixelfed Idea: hide the popular servers. Incentivise the ones that are smaller and less popular.

@aral @pixelfed Hmmm, well, maybe based a little more criteria like stability, uptodate version, etc...

Basically I could imagine a general distribution based on:
- legislation (where is the server located)?
- is it stable?
- runs reasonable recent version?
- is registration open and what type of registration (invite only, free, registration through 3rd party like LDAP/SAML)?
- paid or free?

This should be best determined automatically before offering the user a server.

@ij @aral @pixelfed so I guess "number of users" can be just another filter/flag to consider while generating that list?

@aral @pixelfed If one is going to do that at least make sure they have good security and backup strategies first.
