That’s it. It’s just the fastest springboard this garbage company had to get yet another social media platform out the door when they sensed blood in the water.

Edit: This is a response to people who think FB users will somehow discover the fediverse and be converted by this action. They won’t.

Or that FB has noble goals in choosing AP or will somehow be forced to be better. They won’t.

It’s just good software.

    You make fair points but it’s a bit much to call this reaction mass hysteria. I think people are just trying to figure out where we all stand if/when Meta does start interfering with the fediverse.

    We don’t need to have a full understanding of how their dastardly plan works in order to be apprehensive about the possibility.

    I agree with you that the threat seems limited for now, but its also wise to be extremely wary and cautious when dealing with an entity such as Meta.
