The #fediverse seems a great opportunity for Europeans to finally have a non-american social media platform. There's one thing though:
The explore tab.
Every Mastodon instance shares the same news, posts and followers. And they are 90% corporate american.
Invented by a German, and having 28 countries with nearly half a billion people, you'd expect EUROPEAN stuff.
Nope.
This shifts Fediverse towards the platforms we're trying to get away from.
FB, Insta, Google, YT, Twitter, Snapchat etc.
