Not willing to give them ideas so fast.

That’s something that popped in my head as soon as I started in here, not so long ago.

But there’s nothing to prevent that, right? I mean, Meta could very well create a meta instance on Lemmy or Kbin or Mastodon or in all of them, bring a bunch of users, sprinkle in some ads because why not.

Sure, they could be defederated from more restrictive insfances. In the bigger picture, every other instance could boycott them, but they would surely federate among themselves (Elon meets Mark, ugh). They also have all the computational power and would have no problem being the largest instances in the Fediverse.

Then what? Is that feasible? Probable? My utopian future about a free, descentralized Fediverse is a lie?

    Fantastic. I wonder if they’ll get a Lemmy instance going

        Wow, what are your feelings currently on interacting with the threadiverse from outside? I considered using my Mastodon, but the interface is so poorly optimized for this sort of content that I gave up and registered a separate account.

          Not OP, but I liked kbin as well. I’m on Lemmy so far, but Kbin’s web UI is a bit more appeasing to me.

          Lemmy is faster and has an app tho.

          Mastodon is meant for people who love Twitter. If you like the forum format, just stick here. You can still interact with Mastodon.
