 With Ditto, Nostr can quickly catch up to a better user experience that the Fediverse/Mastodon has had for many years now

 I like the possibility of digging deeper in to a specific subject or group topic, but still having the general townsqure of my feed, and most importantly not having some opinionated admin control my entire social graph

 A ditto admin can control your feed though because they can have policies that reject porn, spam, users, etc

 of course, but then I can take my follows and say GFY admin, I'm gonna start my own shit and we part ways right? 

I actually never went down the mastadon route, but my understanding is that the admin could just say - we don't like your opinion bye bye - and you'd lose essentially your social graph on that server. Is that right?

 You are correct on both statements. Only problem is that Syncing data TO/FROM ditto don't seem to work at all right now

 ...interesting, when you say data, you mean like notes made in that community, or like your existing stuff like follows, mute lists etc?

 All of that. The only thing that you won't be able to do easily is  your uploads unless your ditto instance uses Blossom for the media storage
