Implementation is not the easiest for most, but if you read the specification entirely, it does make sense. For example, Mastodon platform brings ~ 1,000,000 users - if you can federate, it's a channel for ex blogging, posting updates, etc.

Yes. I’ve looked into Mastodon. But again if you use them, your data is stuck on their platform. We need a platform where data is agnostic.

Yes. I would love to see a day when the end user is back in control of their web experience. Similar to how it was in the beginning of the web.
