Is kbin.social anti-corporation? Should it be? (kbin.social)

I'm seeing discussions on other instances about how a "federated" corporate instance should be handled, i.e. Meta, or really any major company.

What would kbin.social's stance be towards federating/defederating with a Meta instance?

Or what should that stance be?

A fair point re priorities shifting, for sure. Though we'd run into the same problem if a super popular instance decided to sell its instance to, say, Google. There's nothing stopping that from happening, either. Bad actors are going to act bad; we just need to figure out how to mitigate their impact.

I have a fair bit of skepticism re nonprofits too. But beyond defederation, there's not much we can do to stop anyone (including Meta) from operating in this space.
