Fun yes, but it also points towards a future where you can have different flavors of a social network. There could be instances of Masto geared towards photography or visual art with large pictures, or geared towards sharing code, or geared towards any number of special needs. And all of them would be able to federate with each other.

As it stands we're all stuck on the same Twitter and the same FB. It's so limiting. I hope Mastodon and its descendants pull through and give us this better future.
