    Oh, no they don’t “randomly” dislike Meta. They have very good reasons to dislike Meta. I dislike Meta. I abandoned all my Meta accounts ages ago, never looked back. Like I said, all social media was a mistake.

    What I’m saying is that the general tenor of the conversation is to actively dislike Meta, then look for ways to justify Meta federating being bad for everybody else. It’s not to think about the consequences of Meta federating and then deciding if it’s convenient or not.

    I mean, my personal take is that Meta social media sucks, so I’d much rather access the people I know in Threads safely from Mastodon than from a Threads account, if we’re gonna put the cards on the table. I don’t need to like Meta for that. In fact, that’s a stance entirely built on not wanting to have to engage with Meta’s platform to reach the people in Meta’s platform.

    And hey, it’d been a while since people accused me of being a paid shill for anybody. That’s some holiday nostalgia for you.
