By moving to fediverse, we already left them behind. We’re being followed.

My concern with this (and other attempts like it) is that the initial integration will of course be done with good intentions by a team who shares the values of the community. And then they will get promotions or move to other jobs within two years and leave the technology to whims of revenue-generating part of the organization who will be merciless with it.

In terms of damage to the community, it’ll be impossible to talk to the people you want to with ten thousand spamming robots separating you.
