    Who got together and decided what it was “supposed to be”? Why does the fedi.tips account consistently behave as though they are some authority?

    Either it’s an open protocol or it isn’t. If instances want to immediately defederate, that is their right of course. But to my mind it sort of demonstrates that they don’t believe in what they preach, and they don’t believe that they can offer a more compelling social offering, even with direct access to Meta’s user base.

    Literally every repeated talking point I’ve seen around this is all rumor and conjecture. At the end of the day we don’t actually know how this will play out until Meta’s offering is launched and we see how they do business.

    Also unclear where the “paid off” aspect comes from. The linked post doesn’t say anything about anybody being paid.
