We‘re not cancelling anyone. We‘re shaping our world like we see fit. You should try it, its great.
That's great, but you are not alone in this world. You cannot just pretend like Meta doesn't exist. Actually, it will be the most powerful instance in the Fediverse. Its a new reality the Fediverse finds itself in and you just want to opt out of it and carry on like before. I understand it, but I just don't think it will work.
Your wording shows that you‘re fully convinced that meta is some kind of deity. Instead, they’re a cancer that spreads through the internet and the real world by now. We‘re not ignoring them, we‘re effectively boycotting them.
For a short best of of meta‘s misdeeds, visit the fedipact.
Nope, just a company. I know that it has done some bad things. I just don't think your strategy is effective.
How can you effectively boycott something without social media? The Fediverse has ca. 2 million active users, Meta services have much more. If boycotting something means cutting yourself off from most of social media, nobody will notice and it won't hurt Meta a bit. Its the #deletefacebook all over again.
You can think that my strategy isnt effective. I just couldnt care less to be frank.
I‘m not cutting myself off from most of social media more than when I left facebook, twitter and then reddit.
You got it backwards mate. They are following us because we‘re gaining traction. We‘re just going to stay ahead.
Agreed.
It's fine. I guess we want to achieve the same thing but with different strategies. Let's see what the future will bring.
Sounds reasonable. Thanks for agreeing (to disagree I guess?)
I‘m glad we dont have to go around in circles like other discussions sometimes do.
Have a good one.
