I would love for the federated model to become a gold standard for how successful platforms ought to be run.

An idea so old is new again. The Internet and it's early services (Usenet, email, IRC, etc.) we're all designed from the start to be decentralized. After 20+ years of people consolidating into centrally-controlled mega platforms, I'm happy to see things coming full circle.
