MODERATORS
I'm not sure I totally buy the conclusion here. It might have been the goal, but Google Talk or whatever died too.
If EEE is the end game, what can we do to fight back? Universal defederation probably isn't going to happen.
Google stuff generally dies quietly due to Google's corporate attention deficit in running product lines.
Meta, on the other hand, is sleazy but full of determination.
Like Facebook Poke? Or the Metaverse?
The metaverse is very much still chugging along, haven't they sunk billions into it?
The fact that nobody's talking about it anymore doesn't bode well if so.
Use various arguments like the existing defederations to pull users over to different instances?
