It’s a pact to block Meta (as in Facebook) run instances if they appear. Obviously up to @Dave to sign, but wondering what people think

    I think a preemptive block is unwarranted and signals that any company who interested in engaging would may have to pass some kind of purity test by the Fedi-elites. All very tribal.

    Vigilance for sure. I imagine fb is more interested in converting twitter users / companies than fedi. (Hence nda)

      Is it really unwarranted when these large corporations have caused so much harm through their social medias in the past?

        I set up my own matrix and pleroma server to disconnect from these guys so I’m not a fan. But I also know how these services haven’t been too picky when it comes to bridging e.g matrix to WhatsApp. Etc. AP immediately looking to bridge to blue sky etc (even hoping they’d use ap, like fb is).
