How do we feel about Meta joining the Fediverse? (lemmy.ml)

Personally, I want nothing to do with them and I'm not willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. I moved to the Fediverse to get away from all these corpos.

you can still use XMPP. i use it, my family uses it.

hate facebook all you want (i certainly do) but dont act like normies would be living in a federated utopia without them. theyd be on whatever is closed source with the most number of people and the most advertising dollars behind it and the simplest user experience. normies like easy, and its hard to blame them.

Yes and no. Normies use federated systems too: Websites and email.
