a.k.a. the 90–9–1 principle. Does the Fediverse follow this rule, or are there more creators here as early adopters? Are you a creator, a participator or a lurker?

i wondered about that too, though people seem to be finding the communities and federation seems to be doing its job. it's nice seeing users from other servers actively participating. only time will tell whether it's sustainable but i think slow and steady growth is a-ok for real community building

Having multiple instances which all are able to make the same community isn't a bad thing, it makes things more divers and prevents censorship.

It does get taxed harder by the 1% rule, to get access to all the content you need to join the same community on all instances, other platform that concentrate the content is a single place doesn't have this issue.
