You're right on that part. Federations works great with mastodon and its instances made of individuals directly interacting with each other's accounts.

But when it comes to interacting though communities already spread through instances, not only it makes it hard for people to follow all these duplicates, but it threatens the very principle of federation in a certain way. Because most people will eventually subscribe to the biggest community for each subject (tech, nature, photo), which often turns out to be hosted on the biggest instances...and that is centralization once again.

A solution could be for users to gather all the communities they subscribed to around topics. Then your feed would be a mix of these topics' groups and singles /c. Twitter does that similarly with its List feature.

I'ts more of a protocol right ? I've heard about that one, but I struggled to use it though the thunderbird integrated client for matrix. I might give it another chance with a better client though

Same happened for me with Deus Ex Human revolution. Back in 2012, I just didn't understand the plot and the atmosphere of the game, and wasn't a fan of the decision-making system. Last year, I plugged in my dusty PS3, started the game and I just had all the keys to a better understanding. Adam Jensen is a charismatic character and the scenario makes you want to go through the whole game in a row

Ouch, I've been using it a lot lately, I would have preferred their app converted to Lemmy's network
