There is one legitimate reason to have attended the meeting of fediverse admins with Facebook/Meta and that’s if your goal was to leak the contents. (We’re waiting.) Personally, I don’t see how I can trust any fediverse admin either stupid enough or malleable enough to sign an NDA with Facebook/Meta. No one made you sign an NDA with a surveillance capitalist that this space stands in diametric opposition to. You did that to yourselves. Don’t be surprised if there are consequences. #p92 #meta

Seems like they had to sign an NDA. The thread came up when I was searching various tags, so I have no more context. Hopefully turns out to be a big (vegan) nothingburger.

    When Google embraced XMPP for their chat system back in the day they eventually pushed out all the other XMPP instances and then when they abandoned it, XMPP died with it.

    Now that’s not to say it could happen with ActivityPub but it’s good to know the history of these kinds of ventures.
