I didn’t realise that Meta was becoming/is already compatible with the Fediverse.

I deleted my Facebook account long ago, I saw what it was becoming and decided I didn’t need that in my life.

What are everyone’s thoughts on this.

See: this post for where I first read about it.

      Really good take. If federation happens (and I actually don’t really think it will), the impact will be pretty minimal.

      Worst case scenario: their sheer scale means they can swamp fediverse with their spam, in which case we defederate and get back to living the good life.

      Best case scenario: it enables us to follow them, and them to follow us, and it just helps things grow.

      I reckon the best approach is a wait-and-see. Threads already looks pretty goofy, and I’m not sure it will have the same legs fediverse does.
