    Hi,

    Some statistics (2019 pre Corona):

    Number of instances by country:
    - Japan hosts ~ 25.5% of all Mastodon instances.
    - The United States hosts ~ 21.4% of instances.
    - France, Germany etc. also have significant shares,
    but less than those top two.
    Tweets are caled Toots:

    Users / Content concentration (rCLwhere the users / toots arerCY):
    - Even though Japan has ~25.5% of instances,
    it accounts for about 41% of users.
    - Many rCLtootsrCY (posts) are concentrated in a few countries.
    For example, the top three countries host a majority of toots.

    It's simple to make gateways to any number of federated
    message-passing platforms with regards to something like
    Usenet with its Internet Assigned Number Authority's
    resulting URL's and URI's to publications in the ecosystem
    of Usenet "The Original Social Media Platform" with its
    de-centralized and highly durable co-operative model of
    good actors on the network.
