How to Kill a Decentralised Network (such as the Fediverse) écrit par Ploum, Lionel Dricot, ingénieur, écrivain de science-fiction, développeur de logiciels libres.
To be clear, I’m all for not federating with Meta, because of what a toxic company it is. Most people have escaped from Twitter or Reddit, how can there be a debate to allow Facebook in? Crazy talk.
I was reacting to the comment saying to allow Meta but ban all the users, which I’m saying is exactly backwards. Any normal user of Meta products should be welcome in the Fediverse. You can’t just say that a billion of people are evil because they use a product for some reason. Stupid maybe, but also may be forced to, and mostly just don’t know any better. Was I evil when I was using Reddit?
It’s the dystopian corpos that have no place here whatsoever.
I’m not saying the users of Meta are evil. I’m saying they’re supporting Meta and thus their presence is as unwelcome as Meta. They can leave it any time they like and I’ll welcome them with open arms, but anybody on a Meta-based instance is simply insta-blocked.
