Why do we need federation though? I like my discord ‘servers’ being disjointed.
Same reason the Fediverse does. Because a would-be piece of software can’t scale without it. If each instance is entirely disconnected, then you can’t interchange between different communities on them without new accounts. This depresses growth.
