As much as I’d love for Mastadon to supplant Facebook tomorrow or whatever, maybe slow growth is healthier? The Fediverse (or similar) can outlast enshittification cycles.
I don't know. It can definitely get enshittified by outside companies starting to spam advertisements, bringing a lot of work to the admins. It's probably best if it happened slowly so it can be dealt with in a structural manner, so I agree slow growth is healthier.
I feel like this is the most important thing, the fediverse needs to last. Fast growth is usually unsustainable, unpredictable and difficult to handle, slow consistent growth is what creates a good 'social' platform
