I agree but I don’t see that in the future. Most of the mastodon folks are influenced by Gargron. nostr:npub108pv4cg5ag52nq082kd5leu9ffrn2gdg6g4xdwatn73y36uzplmq9uyev6 can tell more about it, but I can say they are mostly against nostr and don’t understand what it means to everbody.

If their protocol is open as they claim, I'm sure they will be fine with bridge bots connecting communities.
They banned mostr.pub.
I use this analogy a lot. If centralized platforms like X, Instagram, WeChat etc were led by monarchs, all ActivityPub instances are owned by feodal elites. No average person run their servers to socialize, they hop an instance and obey their rules. Some smart folks realized deplatforming in there (shoutout to nostr:npub1qprptnnuwnqc6h6wxc2q07rfwcmj7cfc6g4r5dgnlkxaysmpr0mqc5365p) and start to migrate, but they are very few. These so called elites are so insecure that doen’t digest the posibility of competition.
Like a wise man said: It’s a damn shame!
Yeah my exact experience on activitypub. when i got to point running my own instance, because I federated with a larger instance like bitcoinhackers, I immediately got blacklisted from a large portion of the network. also because i didn't publicly state a speech policy, that also blacklisted me despite it just being me and one other user on my entire instance.
