The exchange is about Meta's upcoming ActivityPub-enabled network Threads. Meta is calling for a meeting, his response is priceless!

Yeah large EEE on ActivityPub feels like almost a given if they start to use it.

But should you block people from embracing a good thing, just because you're scared they'll try to extend and extinguish?

No one is preventing people who have Facebook or Instagram accounts from joining the fediverse by blocking Meta. What they are doing, is preemptively taking action to ensure an immoral company doesn't do exactly what it has shown itself to be in it's nature to do.

Thanks for answering "the Yang" so that I don't need to :-)

Remember, don't feed the trolls !

I really wish kbin had user tagging just so I could tag you as a "leopards eating faces" party member.
