Found this post super informative as it relates to Mastodon, and thought Lemmy might also benefit from this perspective. I’m not sure I share his optimism, but his points seem sound to dampen some of the alarm bells over Meta joining the Fediverse.

    Oh god, “shilling”. Yep, there’s that Reddit paranoia. Everyone who disagrees with me a robot!

    There are two topics here, Meta and beans. Of course I’m talking about one of them lmao

    And read the original comment I replied to saying Mastadon devs are “in bed with vipers”. That’s what I would consider “shitting on”.

        My comments downplay the “threat” because I don’t believe it’s a threat, and if a single corporation joining the fediverse somehow actually destroys it then it wasn’t going to be around long anyways.

        If you read all my comments you should know that. I’m not a fucking shill because I disagree with you ffs.
