Comment on If I have an account on Mastodon.Social, and another account on PieFed.Social are they technically on the same instance, since they're both on .Social?

Mastodon.social is the address to that specific Mastodon instance. Take a look at this site for more info.

why not make everything (instance).com?

I’m not exactly sure what you mean by that? Are you suggesting everyone to use a ().com? If so, because they are rarely available and if they are, quite expensive.
