@dansup I guess instances need to adopt strict manual approvals for signups. Before even a join request is in, Mastodon should offer verification tools (e.g. domain verification like it works now) and then based on domains/verification quality an assessment can be made. Ironically, to automate this, an LLM could be utilised.

@maxleibman @evan the whole point of the Fediverse is to disperse power by fracturing it into instances. Having one account (=one instance) represent one hashtag that can be followed works against this. So this whole idea is anti Fediverse

@evan @maxleibman I'd object here: one reason 25% of Fediverse accounts are on mastodon.social is because Mastodon website suggests this as a default server to join, so newcomers not being adversed in the Fediverse won't bother searching for alternative instances. I'd say most people join through that approach vs going through all that faff of migrating your account over to mastodon.social unless I am unaware of some statistic.

@tux0r I use Bazzite, so it is super reliable due to immutable OS.

I created an app that allows you to find people from other Mastodon instances based on hashtags you both like.
