In favor of what is the problem. In Lemmy half the instances have defederated from half the others.

People use Reddit because there's only one Reddit. Coming to such a center is human nature, while Fediverse architecture is someone's strategy. Changing your strategy is simpler than changing human nature.

If we drop the tech religion part of the subject, NOSTR moderated communities are a very good thing as a global, not per-instance, Reddit alternative. You can clearly see that its core idea is chosen by people who are more confident with human psychology than with tech. And it's good for that very reason. It's an ugly real solution.

Except all clients suck balls and there's nothing to see there yet.

True, the fediverse is poor. But Reddit is the bottom of the barrel in its current state.
