It might decide to construct a secret droid army and plot in the shadows to overthrow the galactic republic, all while secretly acting as a tool manipulated by the dark lord of the sith. Also tricky trying to explain to people that to join something called ‘lemmy’ they need to go to geddit.social or kbin.social or whatever but that it’s all basically the same except it’s not. Personally I think the Sith Lord thing is a bigger issue.

As I understand it, there's a huge downside to federated software in the requirement to be Always Online. Lots of people have slow internet connections, or no connection at all, preventing them from accessing their software. Everyone should be able to use the programs/apps they have without regard to whether they are online or can get online.
