          they can already do that really. Most of what you can do on the fediverse is essentially public.

        I actually that might not work that well here. If some important people are located outside of threads and lots of people follow them, they need to keep at least some compatibility. Extinguish should work worse than it did for XMPP

      Because that’s the whole point of the fediverse, to be interoperable with other instances using an open protocol.

      They apparently bribed some of the ActivityPub protocol developers and fediadmins into signing NDAs contracts with Meta.

      Now FediDB is showing Meta as “just another fediverse” instance. Pixelfed is very happy to work shoulder to shoulder with Meta devs.

        …and Meta repays them by censoring all mentions of Pixelfed (unless I’m mixing up Fediverse names)
