Found this post super informative as it relates to Mastodon, and thought Lemmy might also benefit from this perspective. I'm not sure I share his optimism, but his points seem sound to dampen some of the alarm bells over Meta joining the Fediverse.

Very sensible. Nothing wrong with increasing the scope of the fediverse. If things start getting evil we can take steps at that point.

I am just afraid at that point it will be too late... Anything created by facebook is imho quite dangerous and the fact they want to come to fediverse is a bit scary for me.

They're a notoriously shady business and therefore have a lot of incentives to be a bad actor in the name of profit IMO.
