Personally, I want nothing to do with them and I’m not willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. I moved to the Fediverse to get away from all these corpos.

    true. but don’t forget that when these things were new, they came kicking and screaming. think of how many people retired during the PC/internet boom just so they wouldn’t have to deal with it all at work. the entire world changed and made websites/email a necessity to exist and survive. i don’t really see a minor flavor of tech like microblogging following that path. people will have an option between “easy and closed source” and “mildly just a little technical but with freedom” and will choose to go with whatever is easy.
