Meta destroying the Fediverse.
Yeah same. I hope we can keep corporate interest walled off. Also with rising popularity comes concern of of astroturfing and spambots.
For perspective WordPress also uses ActivityPub. WP comprises 43% of the internet. Though these corporations may create mills of pure shit behaviour and content, catching the entire Fediverse is like trying to carry water in a collinder. If things ever feel too centralised, do your part to decentralise. Check out the rest of the Fediverse and get involved. The apps are very good, though many are early in development. Build good places and catch those that seek to escape the corporate walled gardens. Resilience comes from community, and these corporations are weak because they are inflexible with singular non humanist goals. Each time the facade cracks, more will be shed. We are kind of like the Wildlings over The Wall.
Here's the creator of ActivityPub. She's great: https://octodon.social/@cwebber/110668011757667052
