The StackExchange communities could easily be migrated to the Fediverse. Aside from embedded advertising on StackExchange's website, is there any catalyst that could trigger this?

I was thinking the same thing, however, I don’t know how to solve the bot issue. The value of StackOverflow is the upvoting of best answers but that becomes difficult to achieve without a solid user reputation system. However, as we saw with Reddit, this tends to reward “group think” and punishes divergent opinions.

That's a really good point. Is Federated Identity an oxymoron?
