To complement my previous comment, I believe the best course for us would be, instead of trying to address something that will never be better than in centralized networks, to try creating things that are great and exclusive to the fediverse. People can deal with minor inconveniences if they get some unique experience in exchange
Maybe having fediverse events, with each instance participating. Maybe even tournaments and championships, with each instance being like a team and having representative users, so that when we register in an instance, it won’t be simply entering a random server, but joining and rooting for a team.
That’s just a random idea. There are probably many other possibilities
These are good ideas. Hopefully something like that happens one day. In addition to events it would be nice if there were more in-person groups (eg for a class or local community group) that chose to connect online primarily through the Fediverse. You see that kind of thing happening with Discord. It would be good if we could do something similar here.

How can we create something exclusive to the fediverse?
