@jdp23 @michael @mike @IPEdmonton @chad - I think most of those tensions were imagined or hypothetical ones. Good news is that it turns out this did not occur - at least over the last year, show any signs of mastodon social hurting the traffic to other smaller mastodon sites Everyone hummed along.

@tchambers Interesting data, thanks! But ...
Measured in terms of monthly active users, though .social has gone from about 17.5% of Mastodon's total MAU in May to 27% today.
Of course that's not the only measure of centralization but still it's an important one. So I don't think the concern I expressed back then turned out to be imagined or hypothetical.
