discover is way harder. No trends, no global public stream, no global news, no global really anything. Either you play dice choosing your instance and follow local stream (or you centralise by choosing largest instances) or you wildly follow everyone and get drown in useless information. 😞

"No trends, no global public stream, no global news, no global really anything." This is #decentralization. There's no global email database either and shouldn't be.

@DogToots This is also segregation, separation, cliquism.

Also I believe many people would want a "global email database", and it's a question whether it's good to enforce people not to use what they want or need.

Decentralisation isn't necessarily segregation, see #matrix for example, where the view is consistently the same independent of what server you're on, and it's decentralised.
