    “i am an instance admin/mod on the fediverse. by signing this pact, i hereby agree to block any instances owned by meta should they pop up on the fediverse. project92 is a real and serious threat to the health and longevity of fedi and must be fought back against at every possible opportunity”

    What goal do you think a pact like that has? Do you not think they want everyone else on board? Don’t waffle with some “will no one rid me of this troublesome priest” sophistry. They want Meta locked out.

      Yes and that’s their right.

      But thankfully they don’t impose anything to anyone. You had me worried for a minute.

        Indeed, one of the great benefits of an open protocol like ActivityPub is that it’s impossible to force stuff like this. So ironically, they’re going to fail to impose their desired outcome for the same reason that they don’t need to impose their desired outcome.
