It would be interesting to know what Meta told them.

I imagine they've used a FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt) strategy to paint themselves in a good light and being without them in dark clouds.

If I had to guess the Zuck to him with their powers combined they could kill Twitter. I can see the concern after what happened with XMPP but a social media site like mastadon doesn't need to communicate with other sites. Mastadon can just defedirate with threads if they don't like something that they do. I mean lemmy and mastadon don't really communicate together very often and exist on their own.
