Mastodon isn’t ready yet but it could be. Honestly, Lemmy still needs time to develop too.
It’s early days and we should be open to new ways of doing things. Dogmatically sticking with the initial idea of what these platforms look like will only ensure their demise.
Personally, I think that accounts and communities on the Fediverse should just be federated. That way, platforms like Lemmy essentially act as a p2p network. No more needing to pick a server, no concern over having someone steal your username on another instance, and no more overcrowding on popular instances. You can just get put on a server that has space for you (or run your own), and control what you see and don’t see without.
