An open-eyed man falling into the well of weird warring state machines. I mostly speak on (offensive) cybersecurity issues.

Well, the malicious actors can setup their own instances as well and exploit the inherent trust between the participants by design. P2P sold as security property in the scenario where participants are unknown and multiple in numbers is misconception. It does not square well with basic security mindfulness, and shouldn’t be taken as improvement in that regard.
I think that federation and all this stuff is not about improving security, it is a form of grassroots communication based on certain principles. If you need security, you use other tools, and treat these things as public, hostile spaces.
Best of luck with your journey!
I plan to spend time solely on this instance. I’m not interested in anything else in terms of anything involving both r/w or just w kind of access (for general questions requiring googling I still go to reddit). I don’t think there is a need in other instances if your interests are niche (like infosec). I’m more than satisfied with what I see here and I hope to keep it this way. It is a viable alternative to /r/netsec, but maybe as an aggregator, not a platform for feedback.
It’s a spam, appeared in /c/exploitdev as well.
