I understand the resistance to indirectly causing the user distribution to be more centralised, but this solves way more problems than it causes.

- people can move

- when the biggest server has scaling issues and lag due to size, the technically literate will move

- having a big instance helps the developers make mastodon more scalable. In a world where the "medium instances" have 10x more users than today, this is helpful trail blazing.

- having a large mastodon-first instance is a good hedge against corporate entities joining the fediverse and flooding it with their existing userbase. We want a large "fediverse-native" population to push back against corporate EEE strategies.
