A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

They will very soon have the largest userbase of any instance. If your instance gets blocked by Meta, your users suddenly have a fraction of the reach because no Meta people can see your posts anymore. That would put a lot of pressure on admins I imagine.
I doubt people who would use Meta's instance are the sort of interesting people I'm on Lemmy for.
If the other instances federate with Meta's you won't have a choice. Content from Meta users will be pouring in.
Sort of, you don't have to subscribe to their communities or follow users from Meta. We don't want to talk with Facebook users, that's not why we're here. There isn't a single person on Facebook who would feel disrupted if they suddenly didn't see my content anymore, either.
Me too and I don't think it'll be a threat to Lemmy but on Mastodon, there are a lot of old people who already use Meta platforms themselves.
