Yeah there will never be a perfect middleway. Either you have a lot of small kingdoms where sometimes some of them go rogue or you got one big one where the Leaders literally rule the whole place.
I think feddiverse will be the better option in the long run after some things get tweaked a bit more.

Your are right but thats the same as in many other IPOS. If you buy shares from a company you have to inform yourself where you spend your money.
maybe i didnt express correct what i mean...
Lets say after 5 years of kbin running and lots of user interactions.
-It should be really easy to pick out 50 or 100 (for example politcal) threads and filter all the up and downvotes. After that you could identify for most of the users which direction they are leaning.
-in the same scenario its much more work to read (or train a AI or bot or something)all the posts to interpret what point of view all these users have.
Im doing ("did") a lot more of up/downvoting than writing longer replys to different topics.
It should be much easier for a company to scan a wide array of users on their voting behaviour than reading their posts one by one.
Really appreciating that a lot of help and guides are provided for newer users. That whole fediverse thing can be a bit overwhelming if you are starting to tinker around with it.
On reddit a lot of bigger topics had mor than one subreddit for example games, gaming and so on. Give it some time and a lot of it will condense into communitys with bigger userbases
As far as i understood it these are two completely different communitys. But im still trying to wrap my head around the whole fediverse thing…
Not trying to argue with you as you are correct as far as i see it....
Having a whitelist federation List would be worse in my opinion cause it would effectively kill the whole "everyone can start his own small instance". It would be a whole lot of work if every small instance has to get approval from the bigger instances to federate with them. And for the bigger instances to process all applications for federation.
