I really hope this is a complete failure, like Meta itself.

    I agree, they need to be kept in check. It’s sad the fediverse isn’t big enough to force them to behave. Ultimately though, if federated services continue to be hard to understand for the average user, people will slowly leave so that they can interact with normal people.

      Hopefully development can continue without Facebook providing input that starts making them essential like Google did with Android. So Facebook can be ignored and just be free to use the tools, but left to be on its own from those that don’t want to deal with them.

        Google is already doing shitty work to android though: they’re removing some basic apps (dialer and contacts) from the open-sourced part of it.
