I agree with this wholeheartedly. People are seriously jumping the gun demanding defederation before we even know what facebook's service will be.
This could be a major boon for the fediverse. One of the biggest problems with getting folks to leave these horrible centralized platforms is getting their friends to make the move. If Facebook is going to make it so their users can interact with fediverse users, it will be very easy to get those users to leave Facebook. If reddit was on the fediverse, nobody would have had to do a protest, everyone could have moved to a Lemmy instance and lost nothing.
