Meta (parent of Facebook, instagram…etc) want to have their content to become federated and part of Lemmy and Mastodon.
Meta has been asking Mastodon and Lemmy server admins to have a “off the record” discussion panel. They told meta to fuck off.
Here’s a post about the email meta has been sending to admins and his response.

one admin told them that. some of them have actually met with Meta after signing an NDA earlier this week.
That is true. Albeit attending a meeting doesn't necessarily mean you're gonna be selling your soul to Meta. Hopefully, those that do decide to attend stand up for the communities that are being built in the Fediverse.
I would personally be inclined to take the meeting to better know how to counter their efforts.
