Comment on Bluesky and Mastodon users are having a fight that could shape the next generation of social media
blueberry@diagonlemmy.social 8 months agoOk, now I get it. It’s an interesting concept. However, I think usability is a trade-off here and that means limited scalability. The average user wants to join a server and that’s it. I will still stick to the federated concept ;)

It’s just as scalable as fedi, I’d say it’s even more scalable since relays don’t need to communicate with each other, which reduces the cost to run a relay. The average user experience is basically identical. They download an app, it connects to a set of default relays (or they can choose some manually if they want), they tweet.
