Your wording shows that you‘re fully convinced that meta is some kind of deity.

Nope, just a company. I know that it has done some bad things. I just don't think your strategy is effective.

We‘re not ignoring them, we‘re effectively boycotting them.

How can you effectively boycott something without social media? The Fediverse has ca. 2 million active users, Meta services have much more. If boycotting something means cutting yourself off from most of social media, nobody will notice and it won't hurt Meta a bit. Its the #deletefacebook all over again.

You can think that my strategy isnt effective. I just couldnt care less to be frank.

I‘m not cutting myself off from most of social media more than when I left facebook, twitter and then reddit.

You got it backwards mate. They are following us because we‘re gaining traction. We‘re just going to stay ahead.

Agreed.

It's fine. I guess we want to achieve the same thing but with different strategies. Let's see what the future will bring.

Sounds reasonable. Thanks for agreeing (to disagree I guess?)

I‘m glad we dont have to go around in circles like other discussions sometimes do.

Have a good one.
