Im rooting for everyone to stop paying attention to bullshit billionaires say, and start paying attention to the bullshit billionaires actually do
-
Yeah, we were all sold on the illusion that these fucks are smarter or work harder than everyone else.
Ive met some of these fucks - inbred old money peices of shit all of them.
Wouldnt piss on a person to put out a fire, zero compassion psychopaths.

paraphrasing Linus Torvalds: "talk is cheap, show your actions" (original: "talk is cheap, show me the code")

I just read a good article about big tech is never a friend to decentralized stuff. You can find it here.
-
Interesting read lets hope we can keep Meta and Zuck out.
-
That article needs more eyeballs on it. Maybe some funny memes to get that message out quickly
-
Good thinking 👍.
-
Someone needs to at least create a let me in meme with Meta and Fediverse.
-

This very much parallels the Embrace, Extend, Extingush philosophy pioneered by Microsoft in relation to open source software.
-
This is a great read for getting some historical context.
-
Not only for historical context but to prevent that history from repeating itself.
Facebook joining the fediverse will be for one reason only and that will be to find a way to crush it and/or monetize.

Good read 👍.
-
Big tech has no problem with decentra, the one doing client monetization are on that fight. Some of them are big tech but that does not make the whole of bt accomplice of the fight.

I wish Zuckerberg developed an interest in the titanic. He keeps ruining my hobbies!

I'm receptive to the arguments that the Fediverse should be open even to Meta, but we've seen this play out too many times before - you simply can't trust a big company like Meta not to try to take over + destroy the Fediverse, when there are tremendous financial incentives to their doing so and no meaningful negative consequences if they do.
-
Yup, you know they'll use the good ole MS triple-E tactic: embrace, extend, and extinguish.
-
Which ultimately didn't work for Microsoft, at least not anywhere near the extent that people feared.
It's good to be wary and watchful, but let's also not become paranoid chicken-littles. Sometimes it's the open standards that end up "embracing" the closed shops and forcing them at least somewhat open.

The fediverse is open to Meta. They're welcome to do what they want. I will simply choose to not federate with and actively block every iota of content or instances they create or touch. Zuck is an ugly cancer on the internet.

What happened?
-
Meta (parent of Facebook, instagram…etc) want to have their content to become federated and part of Lemmy and Mastodon.
Meta has been asking Mastodon and Lemmy server admins to have a “off the record” discussion panel. They told meta to fuck off.
Here’s a post about the email meta has been sending to admins and his response.
