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.

others will either have to follow, or risk dropping out

Honestly, they should. Drop out of the spec if Facebook gains control over it, I mean. Fuck em, I don't care if I can't federate with Instagram, in fact I prefer it that way.

Probably yeah, but then Meta will have made yet another walled garden, and for some reason so many people seem to really love Meta and they will stay there. Then we'll be exactly where we are today. So the way I see it, this new plan from Meta means nothing, but I'm curious to see how things will go.
