What's a tankie? My biggest concern is the fragmentation of communities due to multiple servers, so the numbers in any one server will always be smaller.

they're complaining about us lemmygrad users, but we aren't even the biggest instance anymore + the 2 recommended instances block us anyways so it's a worthless complaint now

Basically another term for communists.

The fragmentation might be a hurdle but with how the fediverse works I see it more just being similar to email. You’ve got people using gmail, yahoo, aol etc each is its own separate server but they can all play nicely together and if one dies the others keep trucking.
