but we can just defederate with meta, right? Worst case we set up a new server with how we like stuff incase our server's admins don't want to

Not exactly. Technically that might be true, but what will probably happen is that Meta become so ubiquitos is that they'll influence the landscape such that no one else will want to use a non-Meta instance; that's their goal, after all.

If they could've, they would've. They(social platform companies) have shown time and time again that they can't maintain it. (Facebook's holding on somehow, that's the only exception I know of)

It's a tale as old as time. Eventually an open source alternative will come! May take an eternity, but it will come.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
