And the community website has a translation into Arabic. Coincidence, or because it shows from which direction some of the funding is coming from?

All in all: Serious threat to #fediverse in the works here, is my feeling.

Why? (I mean, I can imagine reasons, just wondering what yours are.)

I wrote about it on several ocassions, most recently here:

fediverse.town/t/the-fediverse

But it boils down to a combined "Tragedy of the Commons" and the Laissez Faire attitude that is inherent in most grassroots communities.

Thanks for the explanation.

Re "tragedy of the commons", are you familiar with Elinor Ostrom's work?

Not really, but familiar she coined the term.

I've been recommended some reading of her before, but it ended on my gigantic backlog of reading material (well, actually, due to continuous info overload it is only a theoretical backlog, as I will never read most of all the stuff on it)

Yes, I know.
Also no doubt that twitter needs money with -124 Mio. [2020]

This is why I believe that fairness needs force by the European Law.
And that is what I'm personally working on…
