Alternatively if other/future federated protocols are developed with spam and abuse avoidance in mind, then perhaps implementation of any associated tech stacks could be developed that would be easier for the lay person to stand up/rollout. I'm not saying protocol devs should by default be able to tell the future...but if they go in with abuse-avoidance AND ease of rollout in mind, then that would go a long way for federated-style platform...Or, maybe I'm just being overly optimistic! ;-)
