@jdp23 @mike @Gargron @IPEdmonton @chad I quibble but I'd say: "doesn't matter" and "add no value" are not exactly synonyms. I read that as it doesn't matter which one you join to talk to all the others. I LOVE the value of seeing my local feed on indieweb.social but it doesn't make a diff in my connectivity.

@IPEdmonton @jdp23 @mike @Gargron @chad I for one love checking out Jazz communities, or generative art community based servers to find new posts or new users.

@tchambers @jdp23 @mike @Gargron @chad for the instances that are trying to be communities, it does “matter”, though? It just matters for social rather than technical purposes.

@tchambers Perhaps I'm wrong, if so I'd be delighted to be corrected!

@tchambers Yeah like I say I think it's been a been a huge mistake for Mastodon not to emphasize this more and better support it. But oh well. https://heat-shield.space/mastodon_two_camps.html is a good look at the tensions between the "bigger is better" flat view and the "networked communities" view.
