Federation isn’t the solution—we’ll have issues like this unless there’s a great enough incentive to host a stable server and prevent personal differences from getting in the way. But if everyone flocked to the few trusted instances, everything would be centralized again. And while you could still host your own instance, who’s to prevent the larger instances from not federating with you? Similar to how it’s nearly impossible to self host an email server with reliable delivery.
