Federation is just the current gimmick fad of the foss world.

Everyone has a massive boner for it in everything even when it makes no fucking sense or only harms a project.

Is it cool? Yeah. Is it actually important? Not at fucking all. It’s at best a secondary feature that’s nice to have if it doesn’t harm the project.

Getting an actual product that’s safe, secure and most importantly functional. Is infinity more important then federation.

End to end encryption is kinda the same problem. Not EVERYTHING needs that level of security. You don’t and shouldn’t be talking about things that require that level of secure in apps that aren’t designed first and foremost for that level of safety.

And you can’t expect everything to be secure and user friendly. They go against each other frequently.

Again a nice thing to have, but functional usability comes first.
