This is actually pretty exciting. Excited to see how this turns out. But I am wondering how to keep it financially possible to operate the platform. Also, 95+% of the users probably don't care that much about censorship and privacy enough to switch platform.
I would have thought that the point of federation is not to require centralized servers that cost a lot to operate.
But sure, something like this probably requires a fundamentally different revenue model. Maybe even the one where people donate to server operators.
