   With regard to the "single tenant web": Do you have any gut feelings about the usage of energy and hardware resources the Fedeverse would need and consume in the small tenant web (STW) vs the current semi-centralised form (SCW)? Ideally, if every user had his own instance, wouldn't that consume even more energy than larger instances do now, given the amount of conversation-posts that always have to be repeated again and again in every call and response? (You wrote a text on that latter a few months back.) So, although a STW may be preferred for various reasons, ecological reasons may drive others to opt for the SCW.

     @davew Hey Dave, I call it the Small Web. Just updated what I’d written about it with the latest work as it had gotten a bit out of date:

     @aral

     What are you working on? You can respond privately, I am not looking for debates, looking for interop.

     You know what, don’t @ me if you‘re going to defend Facebook joining the fediverse or whatnot. Seriously, I’m not here to debate you. I’m sick and tired of pointing out the obvious. Do what you like. There’s a reason I’m building something that’s actually decentralised. It would just be nice to have the stopgap in place long enough to serve as a bridge.

     Oh, and if the largest servers don’t end up blocking Facebook/Meta, a boycott will not work.

     I’ve said my piece.

     Over and out.
