Stop thinking in terms of silos and start embracing the re-emergence of the World Wide Web.
I suspect there's tons of issues with ActivityPub, ranging from inefficiency of synchronization to discovery of instances, but those are things we can evolve for ActivityPub.
But i absolutely adore that creating a new platform with unique features can still be compatible with the larger ecosystem. It's like creating a new Reddit client (Apollo/etc) but it can have new features like shared economy or integration to PixelFeed/Mastodon/etc.
Despite not loving some things i'm about inefficiencies ActivityPub, i adore what it's giving us. I hope we run with it.
I don't want the very nasty users of that 10M to interact with me or my friends.
This is just opening everyone to harassment we didn't ask for.
Just looking for an open source Instagram alternative to convince my friends to move to.

I fail to see how this is much different from existing social media, where there are also any of millions of users who could harass you or your friends.
