New here...trying it out :)

I am sure this might have been mentioned by someone else but my concern - someone that is financially motivated and saavy could work on becoming one of the larger instances in hopes Meta will buy them out. Similar to a startup, make a good product (community) and hope to get bought out for big bucks.

This means we need to trust instance owners and they in turn, as they get larger, need to be over transparent of their motivations, goals, and actions

Quesion: I don't know if the tech limits this, but if an instance owner flips to the dark side- could past posts and content be opened up for Meta mandated data scraping? Or would any code change like that not be retroactive? Aka if we select an instance that turns bad could we be feeding the machine in the future without knowing it today?

He is dangerous. I don't nessesary disagree with everything he says, but this mindset is institutionalizing dangerous non science based decision making.

Well I hope they stay safe 😳

I wish I could HoA would throw a fit. Long term plan is more rual and will try to keep it local for most of the "lawn"

Then general state of the country has me very concerned. Only thing I can do is try to educate and vote.

PS: glad to have a new politics community to visit since I left reddit
