Yea I mean, I don't think anyone could actually believe that Meta is acting in good faith here, or even capable of acting in good faith in general. As much as it's exciting to think about plugging a billion new users into the Fediverse, it would no doubt be done in a way designed to enrich Meta at our expense.

Embrace, extend, extinguish.

Surprised actually they beat Microsoft to the punch

Yeah, but Microsoft has no social media presence. They tried to get into the market (somewhat) with the kin and failed. And imho recently they have been struggling to attract users in new markets.

they would have to prove that they are in good faith to be able to gain our trust in federating with them. but with their past bullshit, its hard to do so.

Zuck is too much of a wolf in turd’s clothing. Wait no, that’s not right. A bastard in a turd’s clothing. Wait.

‘A skidmark on the boxers of humankind’ is the phrase you’re looking for I think.
