Federation is just complicated enough to keep the dummies out. Also probably defederating the idiot instances and better content moderation.

Not only that, but the community is small enough that large corporations and marketing companies don't care about it. Yet ;)

And at that point we can defederate from corporate instances. Its so user first.

It's not about corporate instances. It's the bots and fake accounts/posts/comments. That's one of the issues with Reddit. There are little authentic posts. Most of them are advertisements it just reposts to farm karma to avoid detection. It's ridiculous.
