Is it just the momentum and word of mouth, or are there improved features as well?

    Federation a brand new concept.

    LOL!

    You’re dismissing the fact that web browsing and e-mail are federated. DNS too. Usenet. Gopher. IRC to a certain point.

    Not a brand new concept.

      See my other reply. Regular users don’t understand, nor care, nor even think about it. To the mainstream, of everything you’ve listed, only email is a common concept, and even then you have some major congregation with very few providers. It doesn’t matter that your bubble is used to it, because it represents a risible percentage of the mainstream.

        You have a point. I actually don’t want mainstream people in here. Because they suck so much as the youtube comments used to show before it implemented upvotes.
