    Imagine making an open protocol and shocked pikachu facing when corporations use it. So are we gatekeeping now? Isn’t the whole purpose of Fendiverse so people can set up their own servers with their own rules with no gatekeeping?

      There’s no gatekeeping about who can use the protocol, but individual instances can gatekeep who gets to federate with them. There needs to be a subset of the Fediverse that does not federate with Meta, if this is to survive as a community outside of corporate control.
