Federations are the worst decentralization model, they're too loosely cooperative.

federations are the only decentralization model that scales, the issue is that most "federated" systems are actually just "distributed centralization" eg mastodon.
There's a technical difference between a "distributed" system and a "decentralized" system.
What is federation if not ‘distributed centralisation’?
