      But that’s a provider/customer relationship, on the fediverse it isn’t.

        For now. Commercial servers are possible, especially if communities become multi-instance in the future.

        Every mature decentralized service calls them providers. Phone providers, ISPs, email providers, etc. I guess usenet just calls them “news servers”, though.
