I'm not sure I follow you. It sounds like you expect to receive from every instance, and in turn expect all to receive from yours?

I don't see the appeal; it sounds like it would devolve into white noise

I'm expecting random person to reply to my comments here, and expect my reply to yours shown to you. I don't expect* others to be on a blocked sub-cluster of HN server that my comments would not show or someone else's response to be removed from my sight.

*: for the sake of argument

Is there any kind of social media that doesn’t become a serfdom in your opinion? I mean Hacker News falls under that definition as well yet here you are consuming a curated feed.

Are there thousands of HN?

I don’t understand the question. You are currently using one of the most heavily moderated sites on the internet complaining that another platform which allows individuals to create their own clients which to view content published on the protocol has servers that you are not required to use that are too moderated?
