I used to worry that the Fediverse would eventually collapse into one big server. Once you've been subjected to a couple of shutdowns your selection criteria for an instance factors in longevity.
I think things are more positive than I originally thought, because I think we'll end up with a collection of large servers and lots of very small ones.
@stevefenton I like to think of the Internet as Ecosystem (had this in Drafts for ages). and the mixture of large and small fits with that. The number of software niches completely dominated by one product seem unhealthy to me.
