So at any point a community can defederate from meta and only federate with the likeminded free communities.
That is the strength of the fediverse.
Yeah I wouldn’t be surprised if fb or Reddit started their own Lemmy instances, which they would use to post ads, and have some user-transparent integration with their native platform.
But I bet a lot of instances would de-fed them like you say.
yeah, maybe, it will just keep staying under the radar and at some point someone will have to spend some cash to keep the lights on.
