And it could potentially allow them to bring over followers from decentralised platforms such as Mastodon.

I for one welcome Meta to the Fediverse.

The most likely scenario is that they won't federate by default, but it will still bring in a massive influx of users. Of those, there will be a small percentage that will branch out from whatever Meta builds and join the fediverse as a whole, which I see as just a net benefit.

If ActivityPub and the Fediverse can't survive corporate interests, it would have never survived regardless.
