Oh who cares. Joe Blow is not going to run their own fediverse server.

You know who will, and don't care about the resource usage? Organizations.

They won't because it's too inefficient to even make sense. You're running it as a loss. You're better off paying for a service that is profitable like Slack.

For example, a lot of people are pushing for colleges to run matrix and give every student an account, just like they do with email.

If they did that, they'd be sunk financially though lol.

Even if organizations did run fediverse servers, that defeats the whole point of the fediverse. I don't even know why I'm writing this comment though, because I'm proven right be the fact that the activitypub team is working to solve the very issues that I am talking about. So they clearly think it's a problem and agree with me.
