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.

    None of this has anything to do with Mastodon’s source code though, I don’t know why you keep bringing up open source

        I assumed that was about mastodon.social not defederating and Eugene Rochko saying not to worry about Threads

          Eugene Rochko even says to join a server that defederates Meta if you want in the article.
