@seanny@mastodon.au @feditips@mstdn.social @donmelton@mstdn.social I like the spirit of this idea and it is one I would chose. But the decentralization guys won't like it if it tends to direct people to one of 10 instances, and if it could literally send you anywhere there would have to be a lot maintenance to not send people to closed instances or ones that are poorly connected to the fediverse (defederated), or have wonky rules. Basically .social can't vouch for any server they don't control.
