No need for an antagonistic tone here, just conversing with you.

I think this would be a problem now for people like me who enjoy browsing all, where the feed would get overwhelmed by facebook-sourced content.

And I don't like meta as a company, so it shouldn't be a surprise that many people do not want to provide any data whatsoever to them via threads etc.

Except that you're posting publicly and there is absolutely nothing that prevents Meta from scraping all of your lemmy activity as it is.

I thought your second point was ~ 'Lemmy instances shouldn't federate with meta because you don't want them getting your data', not, 'it doesn't matter whether or not we federate because they can scrape that data off Lemmy anyways'.
