Not the OC but the problem I have is in just one private citizen's ability to influence so much military power. While historically this isn't new and in this case it does overall good, I think that this kind of thing is a slippery slope that eventually could lead to billionaires funding wars to manipulate market elements for profit.

I'm not the OP but I have a similar situation. I work in multimedia design and use a wide array of software from the full Adobe suite, to in-house command line apps, to the Articulate suite and everything in between.

I'd love to be on Linux but that just isn't a possibility for me.

As an English monolingual, I would never assume an unknown language is satanic.

That being said, French is absolutely a language of Satan.

It would be sweet if we could create some trade/ military alliance similar to the EU between the ol' Commonwealth gang.

They watched cyberpunk: edgerunners and got really inspired by the wrong things.

There's no real advantage to joining the largest instances, you can view all their content from your fediverse account regardless of which instances you're on (unless it's been defederated which only applies to a small number).

Too many users/ traffic can overload the servers reduce the experience for everyone. Instances are mostly hosted by individuals and becoming too large, too quickly could have a financial impact on the owner.

Additionally, if any instance ever gets too large a share of users on the fediverse, the way they operate and their rules become "the standard". Then we're basically back at Reddit.

Diversifying instances is good in the long run!
