I can't even begin to explain this without getting into what fediverse politics has been but i thought this would be of interest to you guys regardless. The TLDR is that Meta's been developing their own ActivityPub project (and with it instances) under P92. And apparently they had a meeting with key figures especially on the microblogging side (so that includes Eugen the Masto guy) - no details provided because got NDA.

If you've been on fediverse to avoid corporate socmed and/or object against surveillance capitalism, naturally this wasn't treated as good news.

(I thought this is the best channel for this but lemme know if i got it wrong)

Yeah, heard about that yesterday, dunno what to feel about this because i've just been here for like what, 3 days? I only kinda know how instance works but not sure why it works.

But anyway, can we just defederalise meta if that happen? Is that possible?

[-] PositiveNoise@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Sure, and I probably wouldn't stay on any fediverse site that federated with Meta. Hopefully Kbin joins this Alliance Against Evil asap.

@PositiveNoise absolutely, threadiverse protocols like kbin and Lemmy is a vector for exposure risk because they aggregate links. In kbin even untagged fedi posts go to the 'random' magazine on kbin.social

Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.
