While I might only be able to influence a few people, the act of defederating Meta will have the power to influence a lot of people to influence a lot of other people.

Why would anyone want to recommend an App which can't even interact with the most promising communication network in recent years?

Federating with Meta will send the opposite message: "Yes, we endorse them. You can choose either us or them. Have fun."

I do not endorse them and I don't want anybody I know of to think I do.
