#FB was created as a macho website and it's become a toxic space.
Maybe the #Fediverse should have a vote if it really wants to be hooked up to such a place?
Any individuals would still be free to join.
If #Meta were #Twitter, I'm sure about the vote.
#Meta is in the same league, though.
#FOSS does not mean that corporations can all join, regardless of their behavior + agenda.

Will it work? Will people prefer that certain-to-be-unfederated federation?
Here's a Reddit screenshot that is an interesting take on where things are with Mastodon and concerns moving forward.

As of today, this instance blocks known domains associated with Meta's #project92, in accordance with the anti-Meta Fedi Pact (https://fedipact.online/)
In effect, this instance does not federate with the domains threads.net or threads.instagram.com. Further associated domains will be blocked, if discovered.
We are not personally against the users of Project 92, we are against Meta. We will not be giving them a chance. Their work is a threat to the Fediverse, as it has been a threat to other social spaces and open communities for years prior. They are not welcome in our homes.

Preemptively block them.
Refuse to allow them in your spaces.
It doesn't matter how kind or conscientious the engineers you speak with are. Meta's gluttony for data and power over its users is inherent to their company, and is inseparable from it all.

Yes, they did.
Because you’re what’s for dinner.

Twenty #NHS trusts are sharing intimate details about patients’ medical conditions, appointments & treatments with #Facebook without consent and despite promising never to do so.
"The data includes granular details of pages viewed, buttons clicked and keywords searched. It is matched to the user’s IP address – an identifier linked to an individual or household – and in many cases details of their Facebook account"

The Metaverse isn't dead; it just isn't what you believe it is
#SecondLife: Hey, we're the true #Metaverse, and we aren't dead!
#OpenSimulator: Bitches please, we've used the term "Metaverse" in 2008 already for our #Hypergrid.

Leave everything as it is? (Not even possible, big cos like #meta are circling.) What improvements do we need in protocols? In apps? In user experience? In governance? In moderation? In funding?
What can be done by each app/instance/user on their own? Where do we need to coordinate? Where and how do we coordinate? Lots of big questions. How do we answer them?
Meta is building a decentralized, text-based social network

Pew: 31% of American adults say they regularly get news from Facebook.
So either #Meta and Americans define news differently, the small amount of news shared on #Facebook has an outsized impact, or likely, a bit of both.
That said, during the last two multi-hour Facebook outages, direct and total visitors to our legacy local news sites went up.
It’s more evidence that communities will seek out impactful content.

Meta's planned changes for kids' safety - will they work?
Tech giant Meta says its planned changes to Instagram and Facebook will help keep its youngest users safer online, but the company hasn't ruled out pushing forward with a kids-only Instagram.RNZ
When Tumblr joins the fediverse by implementing ActivityPub, we should:
- Defederate Tumblr if they inject ads into the federation for our users, and
- Defederate Tumblr if they place federated posts (our posts) alongside ads.
No ads on fedi.

Il problema autoindotto nel cercare di postare sia in inglese che italiano è: pensare in inglese e traduco in italiano? viceversa? o scrivere più o meno la stessa cosa, ma pensandola nativamente nella lingua in cui sto scrivendo, col risultato di avere sottili differenze nel testo?
