Oh awesome, I open my app to find the #fediverse in a giant collective panic because a social platform owned by a giant company dares to join it.

Fedi: “I want an open platform where everything is standardized”
(#Threads enables ActivityPub)
Fedi: “NOT LIKE THAT ANYTHING BUT THAT”

If you declare an open standard and provide the clearly superior ecosystem, you relinquish control of who uses it just by it being open. You can’t have it both ways. Ever.
