Mastodon communities currently defederate from instances of over a certain size (including .social) because of how hard it is to moderate large instances, beehaw isn’t doing anything weird in this case.

This goes back to not voting in every election. Groups that invest (money, time, votes) on local races (city council, school board) have a greater variety to pick when one of these people goes on to higher office (state-level, county-level) and then goes on to federal office.

The primaries are already too late - it’s all about the local races.

somehow I don’t see the GOP alternative performing any better on this issue.

or we can get cooperative model that is already present in a couple mastodon instances.
