Hello m@teys,
I've been waiting for this a long time (half a year), personally. After seeing the surge in piefed instances, i.e. blahaj, .ca, .zip, quokk.au, and .world creating their own instances, and clients guaranteeing future piefed support, we've been thinking about potentially opening an instance in the future. Not a guarantee, just an idea. This isn't a voting thread, just a discussion. Later on we'll actually vote on this.
Do note that this thread will not guarantee an instance; we are discussing a hypothetical. Suggestions? Ideas? Criticisms? make your voice heard.
Have a good week!

governance type: sense check
True that, I suppose Piefed has it's advantages with a faster development pace.
Although I'm still sceptical, especially regarding fragmentation
Skepticism makes sense, though if we were to make an instance we'd definitely start small at first (maybe invite-only?) and then see how it scales, just in case.
Is fragmentation really a concern when both can interoperate?
