This is great in theory, but in practice federated networks fragment and it’s never one big network. Theres almost always some federated path between two servers but often it is long and unpredictable, and the way AP works there’s no way to hop across more than one connection between them. You wind up with almost every server that cannot see some content on the network and often enough practically isolated federations.

I feel like this is probably a short-term technical problem, it seems like it should be solvable as more people start to use it.
