I personally am quite against it. I joined Lemmy to stay away from the toxicity on Meta’s platforms. I don’t want any corporate bodies on the fediverse either and possibly doing to the fediverse what Google did to XMPP

    It’s a double edged sword. I like the idea of activityPub getting more focus so it can be optimized and improved. I hate the idea of getting low quality Facebook style spam. I get that you can block things but I’d rather it just not be there

      Just like Google did with XMPP, most of those improvements will be for Threads/Meta only while making the rest of the fediverse look subpar.

        Honestly - good. If that keeps the “normal” users on that platform, which will likely be defederated, I’m perfectly fine with that.

        There’s a large population difference between the current fediverse and XMPP in the past. I think there are enough people who would stay on the non-mainstream platform to keep it alive.
