Or they could just build on the fendiverse because the fendiverse was created so people like you and all the other unhappy people can't gatekeep just because you don't like them. Can't have your cake and eat it too.

The whole idea of it being decentralised is to stop companies like meta coming in and turning it into just another capitalism machine

Theoretically I'd hope the admins of all the bigger Lemmy instances would refuse to federate with them on account of the fact it would largely collapse the federated network into one big blob of everyone on the same server that is controlled by a corporation that's demonstrated time and time again not to have consumer rights at heart in the slightest

On the contrary, one of the fediverse's greatest strengths is that it encourages gatekeeping.
