    Explain how they would impact our communities if we defederate their instances from ours.

    Spoiler: They can’t.

    There is zero reason to freak out. If you don’t want to be affected by Meta then don’t join an instance that federates with them. Boom. You’re done. Problem solved. That’s the beauty of the fediverse choose your flavor.

    They are going to have more users, that’s just a fact. They already have more users than us, but we still have these healthy and active communities. They could have 30 billion more users and we still don’t lose as long as we have the communities we’ve built on our own instances.

    Edit: Why are all these doomer accounts from kbin.social? Open registration is a mistake.
