I think this is an overreaction... Meta may think it can do an E^3 on the ActivityPub universe, but the thing is...
They'll get defederated within a week or less by all but mastodon.social probably. As soon as some transphobic arsehat, throws a fit over mutual aid.. They will keep going for a while talking to the people that talk to them but eventually they will rip the fedicode out of their codebase. Just like Gab did..
AND During the time that the fediverse code is active in Meta's thing it will introduce a fuckton of people to the concept of federation, and some will see the benefits of.. a more "Community Driven Internet" so to speak, so that's a win for us.
Addendum: None of this is to say I'm against blocking Meta, on sheer principal. I just think the traditional advertising based business model of the CorpoNet, won't be able to make profit here. Not worried about Meta at all. There are other corpos and other models I am worried about though. If we see something like TapTalk hit the fedi I'll freak the fuck right out, for example
