The way it works in practice is that the largest instances are where most people go. What is stopping those devs from imposing their views on the community, e.g. by censoring?
Nice thing is, the devs have no power about instances they don't run.
They just write the code for them, and since it's open source, we could see any sketchy code and just fork it away
If that happens word gets out and people switch and currently the instances ran by the OG tankies are actively trying to dissuade people from joining.
Hahahaha fuck. I love it when tankies are a self-solving problem.
