Anyone over the age of 30 who has spend any time in tech-adjacent spaces still cheering for #BigTech "joining" the #Fediverse is fucking deluding themselves. We've been through so many cycles of this shit over the past twenty years, how some people can still trust #facebook to do anything remotely ethical is beyond me.
They're not here to join, they're here to destroy. This is just the most cost-effective, PR-friendly way of doing it.
@peter_sc This. I just wish the big guys on the fedi wouldn't be so keen to put growth above anything… Eugen has proven once more he doesn't have the users' safety at heart. But I expected way better from Dan (Pixelfed creator). The fact he now also federates to Threads with its main instances is just… sad.
