Assuming they don’t mess with fediverse protocols, here’s hoping that I could interact with their users without using Meta’s proprietary apps, when it’s absolutely necessary. (This is separate from mastodon instances choosing to defederate from Meta servers)

If anyone is chiming in with “just plain don’t”, I’m talking of situations like Spanish speaking countries where every single fucking thing is done through whatsapp. Everything. There’s no avoiding it.

If I can use a self hosted instance and foss app to talk to the borg instead of their borgware, that’s a tiny point in my favor.
