So when I read that, I thought you meant instances owned by corporations. I think it'd be pretty nice to go to lemmy.microsoft.com and they'd have groups for all the Microsoft products where users could get support, learn about updates, etc. And you'd know it was an official community because it was hosted by Microsoft. But you could federate, and wouldn't have to make a forum account for every single company you wanted to interact with. I'm imagining lemmy.apple.com, lemmy.microsoft.com, lemmy.sonos.com, lemmy.linksys.com, whatever. I'd like that.
Right. With federation, it's only an addition to the network, not supplanting it.
