This is being posted all over the Fediverse, and it's worth a look ourselves. Beware federating with corporate entities like Meta, because it inevitably comes with a poison pill designed to disadvantage independent actors like us.

I don’t know if those rumours have a grain of truth, if it is even possible for Meta to consider it. But there’s one thing my own experience with XMPP and OOXML taught me: if Meta joins the Fediverse, Meta will be the only one winning. In fact, reactions show that they are already winning: the Fediverse is split between blocking Meta or not. If that happens, this would mean a fragmented, frustrating two-tier fediverse with little appeal for newcomers.

Meta can eat shit, it is unbelievable that the big monopolies always have to spoil everything good.

Thanks for sharing.
