Facebook/Meta and the like have proven to be untrustworthy. If they were a person, would you let them federate with your friend group? I wouldn't. I hope they're not invited to the party because the things that brought me here are the things that drove me away from there.
It's just more embrace, extend, extinguish crap. Meta absolutely shouldn't be trusted, especially with their track record so far. Most (though not all) instances I know are defederating.
I'd assume any actions by Facebook are hostile and are attempts to Embrace, extend, and extinguish
The strategy's three phases are:
- Embrace: Development of software substantially compatible with a competing product, or implementing a public standard.
- Extend: Addition and promotion of features not supported by the competing product or part of the standard, creating interoperability problems for customers who try to use the "simple" standard.
- Extinguish: When extensions become a de facto standard because of their dominant market share, they marginalize competitors that do not or cannot support the new extensions.
