Personally, I believe the interoperability of #ActivityPub hurts #Meta more than helps it. And if we want to hurt Meta all the more, we make their services even more interoperable.
For example, that's what npub1f9fd738mny4rh95466l75u3raq4t65hcg2zm0qdcc0qgqn7g20lqn0dgxv (npub1f9f…dgxv) is doing by allowing #Instagram posts to be imported into #Pixelfed. The problem is that since Instagram isn't federated, that import feature can only be seen by people who are already aware of Pixelfed. And awareness of Pixelfed by Instagram users is vanishingly small.
But when Meta joins the Fediverse, we can change that 😊
