Interesting take. I know about Meta and it wouldn't be out of character for the Dutch government to go into the federated direction. It would be really awesome to see more federated platforms catch on like Mastodon. We just have to be careful about letting companies like Meta in. What happened with XMPP can't happen with the Fediverse. I do admit that I probably make it out to be worse than it will be, I'm just the cautious kind. Let's hope that the Fediverse will be a nice place with nice people for a long time.
