The new #spreadmastodon project needs to balance the damage with the good it does with its outreach project.

The wider #Fediverse relying heavily on a single platform, mastodon or instance mastodon.social, can have negative consequences. Leading to a concentration of power and influence in the hands of a few individuals and entities. This can result in issues such as censorship, lack of innovation, and a loss of privacy for users.

@feb Concerns raised about the SpreadMastodon.org project are that it may promote insincere or ineffective activism, promote the agenda of NGOs over the needs of communities, and potentially lead to the co-optation or watering down of the values and principles of the #openweb culture. It is important for the project to balance the potential damage with the good it can do through its outreach efforts, and for the wider #Fediverse to avoid relying too heavily on a single platform or instance.
