I love to see the diversity of software increase. Once we clone all the major ones we can start innovating to the point where you have something completely new and bespoke and that will be really exciting

    I think the communication between the different platforms in itself is also something new and exciting that is brought to the table. Like when a comment on Lemmy suddenly starts making the rounds on Mastodon because it works well as a stand-alone toot.

    I also like the potential for services to evolve more naturally. I honestly don't think Mastodon is all that similar to Twitter, or PieFed all that similar to Reddit. Sure, they started out as similar concepts, but they develop in pretty different directions.

    Things are starting to diverge but I think we're still early on in the process. Exciting stuff to say the least. Also notable how we're doing all this and bluesky isn't despite them having 10x the userbase

    I think Wafrn communicates also with Bluesky! But I'm not sure how well it works.

    That Mastodon at least makes an effort to present content in a meaningful way is a great thing for the fediverse. It's hard to imagine Bluesky growing into a huge set of different services when the mothership refuses to display more than 300 characters.
