MODERATORS
Well, people like to think that the fediverse is a genuine threat to Meta. And they like to feel they're doing important work defending it from Meta. So this will indeed pop up again, and again, and again.
They do? I mean, a few times I did have to point out that Meta has multiple products breaking 2 billion active users, so the "fediverse" is a drop in the ocean, but not many people seem to stick with that argument after a quick bout of googling.
Do you REALLY think that will be their end game?
Why can't it be both? It's useful now for that reason and if it does grow they are in a position to kill it or absorb it.
