There’s been some Fediblock drama that’s resulted based on things said in my threads. Not something I said, but something a well-known admin said.
Unfortunately, I’m being roped in. Let me tell you, someone else’s opinion is not my opinion.
But also, much of what I have been saying has been taken out of context.
When I say that “ActivityPub doesn’t deserve to exist if it can’t survive Meta using it”, I am very much speaking about the protocol.
This is because ActivityPub was designed to be used by anyone—and there’s nothing you and I can do about it.
You might think Fediblock is doing something about it, but no, that doesn’t matter on whether or not Meta uses the protocol. They will continue to use ActivityPub whether or not we like it.
So with that knowledge, what can actually be done about Meta coming to the Fediverse?
