I think it is really important that we do not let our uniqueness be diluted but am I wrong?

    I’ve personally no issues with corporate instances, in principle. E.g. if Ford wanted to create an instance to chatter about cars etc, I’m good with that. Even the likes of Google etc might be (very!) cautiously acceptable , despite their history of EEE tactics.

    Meta, however, is like gangrene. There are 2 ways to deal with it, antibiotics, or immediate amputation. We do not have an antibiotic.

    Meta will almost certainly poison community here on Lemmy. Whether it is accidental, or deliberate is irrelevant. It’s the nature of that particular monstrosity. Lemmy doesn’t have the mass, or history to absorb the damage they will cause. The only safe option is to amputate early and hope we can contain the infection.
