I’m just curious what you folks think. The whole idea of the Fediverse seems to go against everything Meta has stops for with their existing platforms (Facebook and Instagram).

What are they after? Are they going to try and infiltrate it so they can get people’s data and content? Are they trying to monetize it? It just doesn’t add up. I feel like most people on the Fediverse already would agree that we don’t want Meta’s platforms to access our content.

Please excuse my ignorance if it doesn’t work like I think it does. I’m relatively new to the Fediverse myself.

    I can agree with all you are saying, while also agreeing with the stance that Meta’s presence is corrosive by its’ very nature.
    There will be a sugar rush up front, diabetes down the road.

    EDIT: They WILL find a way to insert themselves more severely if and when this thing grows.
