Is there a real problem there? One can always find an instance not federated with Meta.

My concern is that the toxic culture from Meta’s platforms will be imported here, and the only way to get away from it would be to not only defederate from Meta but to defederate from anything federated to Meta (essentially creating two fediverses). I hope it doesn’t come to that, but that’s my worry.

In which case you essentially return to the status quo right now, where the Fediverse is a small group of somewhat-ideological tech enthusiasts.

There’s a good argument for keeping it small and focused. Massive all-encompassing social networks are relatively new and not a good thing in my opinion.

and I like it exactly like that. The lemmyverse at least feels big enough

Replace “Meta” with “Hexbear”, “Lemmygrad”, “Lemmy World”, etc., and see how the multiple fediverses are working right now.

It’s definitely a nicer experience around here if you block certain instances, I won’t mention names myself. The difference is that Meta’s instance is big enough to completely drown out everyone else which can’t be said about the above.

Right now, sure. Will that always be the case?

I think it will be very easy to find a host that federated from them, making it easy to mitigate the damage.

Well, at least we've moved from "Meta is Satan! Defederate!!1!" to "They may mean well now but they'll turn evil later."

No we haven't. I never stopped screaming that.
I scream it now. Fuck Meta.
