But why? Isn't the whole point of federation that we can interact with people in other communities? Don't we want these big platforms to adopt ActivityPub? Completely walling them off seems counterproductive
Not defending Meta, just curious
this is why
there is a very good chance that this project by meta is the thin end of the wedge

What’s the alternative? They go with a non activity pub system and woo away all our users anyway?
Who cares? I’d rather they stay away from here anyways.
