Raven pretty much summed it up I reckon but to add a note for a possible future here: as the fediverse grows with more trolls, bots and capitalist interests it will turn into feuds and flame wars and brigading between instances and the admins will be pulling hair trying to figure out who to stay federated with. ??
It will definitely be interesting to see what happens. I think it will be an evolutionary process - lots of different things will be tried, and only some will be successful enough to last. Aussie.zone has an advantage because not having open ability to create communities stops it growing too quickly, and the focus on Australia also makes it easier to continue as a separate group if federation turns out to be a problem.
