What do you guys think? Will many instances of these platforms intercommunicating strengthen or weaken our ability to converse?

Does it need to win? Can't it co-exist with others? As long as you have enough people to have nice discussions. You can have that with 10 million people, don't need all 8 billion here... Mastodon is still way smaller than other social media, but still I enjoy it very much. There are enough interesting people there to fill my timelines.

Framing everything in terms of winners and losers is an unfortunate condition. As users who tend to enjoy niche things, we should understand this easily.
