@GregCirillo @futurebird For one, they'd be in control of their own federation with other instances. If they join an existing instance, then that instance is colonized by bots, scammers or Nazis, a bunch of folks would block it and they'd be cut off from other users. If there's a whole instance of just MTA updates and comms, basically no one's defederating from them
@Quisley @futurebird
Thanks. So, if they have an instance that will broadcast MTA system updates, I assume people who want to have this information merely need to "follow" their instance/account? Is it possible to quickly check on an instance, because just following an account doesn't give you their most recent information.
