Only correct response to Meta.

Interesting interaction. Certainly more direct than I’d be but hey that’s okay. One piece of feedback for communicating here is to relay the mission and vision you’re trying to build. It’s indirectly stated here when he states what their objectives should be, but without clearly laying it out there, there’s no way for any collaboration to occur.

And this is not to say collaboration with Meta is a good idea, but just overall anyone can’t know how to work with you if they don’t know what you’re building towards.

I can see Meta going ahead with their plan, and everyone blocking them. They will then start bad-mouthing the Fediverse because it’s never their fault.

I mean… realistically, why would that be their fault if they were to start a fedi instance and everyone else blocked them?

Because of their historical track record?

Well if everyone defederated the message would be clear: Meta is unwelcome here. Their following press releases would probably spin a very different narrative about immature tech and privacy concerns.

What else do you expect them to do? Say “oh yeah I guess a bunch of guys on fedi say we are arseholes, so we must be”?
