Hello comrades, I’m new to this and looking for resources to explain the fediverse to a dummy, hopefully with simplistic drawings. I understand it is essentially an “open source social media format” created for ease of moderation and to protect user data from corporate use, but I don’t understand the concept of federation vs de federation of other social media site data.

    I think of it as website forums that connect together, every site and member can block/allow whatever they want.
