Comment on Decentralization Scoring System
rob200@lemmy.today 2 days agocompared to everything else besides email, 50 or above looks good when you don’t have as much competition aiming to get to 100%
If users go to the defualt server, while things are federated, Mastodon and Lemmy already did their service by using activity pub.
It just seems like possibly we need to more so, educate users why going to the largest server could be a negative thing potentially leading to a monopoly. On one note, Lemmy.world isn’t a defualt server, while lemmy.ml was. So at least Lemmy is doing better in that regard while Mastodon.social, a default/official server from the original devs of Mastodon, could prove being even more concentrating them the trend on Lemmy where users might g to lemmy.world.
Ideally I’d like to see all types of different servers have user activity, but with a low user count, to make this more liley to happen the word about Fediverse needs to be advertised and spread around. So more people can discover it.
I feel like somehow advertising it at local libraries would acually help it go up in discoverability on poster or billboards etc.

Yea most services are basically fully controlled by one entity and score like less than 10.
So 50+ is really good, I think currently Email is the gold standard. Services should strive to be as decentralised as Email

How can Lemmy or Mastodon become more centralized like email, if it is the users who are signing up to the top largest servers. Users naturally might be attracted to servers with higher user counts.
