Gregory's Server@kaukamieli @atomicpoet Possible that through manipulation of perception he could turn people off it. What wouldn't change though is the open source license, which always has potential to spawn new instances - a series of splinternets, really.

@kaukamieli @atomicpoet It's always natural to entertain the worst possible cases, of course. The idea of profitability, userbase growth, and centralisation are connected to mainstream #socialmedia #culture - #mastodon culture has been largely built by cultural outsiders, so I think they're perfectly happy for the platform to remain "theirs" rather than absorb the zeitgeist of big social. #tech |

If he fucks up a few of the biggest instances, are those people gonna give this another chance? Will people keep joining? The license doesn't matter if there are 3 dudes to talk with.
