my cynical take is that facebook is embracing AP *because* it doesn’t help deliver the kind of user experiences (algos, global search) expected by a global mainstream userbase. AP doesn’t threaten fb’s position so it’s happy to play nice with the smalls. atproto is actually subversive in this sense

quoting note127u…f82e

rolling out basic AP support a small step at a time works very effectively for PR!

I know facebook claims this is about legal/reputation risk, but i'm pretty skeptical. they have found a way to get positive press over a multi-year time frame for very little practical interop (and zero adversarial?)
