Comments don’t need aggregation.


Look, we obviously have a difference in philosophy of the fediverse here.


So, let me back up a second and explain that.


The fediverse *should* be about communities being disparate. No single instance, no single mod or admin owning an idea, or the consequent community that forms around an idea. Part of why reddit became so horrible was the inability to have a viable alternative community around a subject when one went off the rails because someone had total control over a word, like “parenting”, or “knives” or “gaming”.


The more you consolidate communities, the more you give fewer entities control of a idea/concept/subject.


Comment aggregation is *nice*, if all you want is a single feed to scroll through, but the price of it is too high.
