     <h3>Disadvantages</h3>
     <ul>
         <li>Adding new features is more complex, because these features need to be standardized and tested to ensure they work with all servers on the network.</li>

         <li>Federated servers generally require trusting your server's administrator. They may be a hobbyist or otherwise not a "security professional," and may not serve standard documents like a privacy policy or terms of service detailing how your data is utilized.</li>
         <li>Server administrators sometimes choose to block other servers, which are a source of unmoderated abuse or break general rules of accepted behavior. This will hinder your ability to communicate with users on those servers.</li>
