Is decentralised federated social media over engineered?

Can't get this brain fart out of my head.

What would the simplest, FOSS, alternative look like and would it be worth it?

Quick thoughts:

* FOSS platforms intended to be big single servers, but dedicated to ...
* Shared/Single Sign On
* Easy cross posting
* Enabling and building universal Multi-platform clients.
* Unlike email, supporting small servers

No duplication/federation/protocol required, just software.

You are on SJW, are you really concerned about defederation? You guys seem to be doing well over there

They're not the worst, but I want literally nobody restricting my access to literally anybody (criminal behavior a grudging exception, and even that I'd prefer to take care of myself).

Also, I fled a couple other places first.

I just don't want a Mommy and Daddy telling me which servers are Naughty or Nice. I don't want technology that enables those restrictions at all.
