@thenexusofprivacy @[email protected] @[email protected] Meta and all its products are pretty much everything that the fediverse is not.

The fediverse :
- does not make money off of its users
- does not exploit its users
- does not discriminate
- does not tolerate hate, violence or abuse.
- does not moderate immorally

We are not aligned with Meta and their predatory practices. Therefore I think it's completely valid and critical to defederate them.

@Kryostar @thenexusofprivacy @fediverse Is meta trying to make inroads into the fediverse? Please let me know so I can stomp down hard on that shit.
