I can’t even begin to explain this without getting into what fediverse politics has been but i thought this would be of interest to you guys regardless. The TLDR is that Meta’s been developing their own ActivityPub project (and with it instances) under P92. And apparently they had a meeting with key figures especially on the microblogging side (so that includes Eugen the Masto guy) - no details provided because got NDA.

If you’ve been on fediverse to avoid corporate socmed and/or object against surveillance capitalism, naturally this wasn’t treated as good news.

(I thought this is the best channel for this but lemme know if i got it wrong)
