 @Xantulon This isn't a plague that suddenly appears out of nowhere. This is something built by humans, and used by humans. You might think blocking Meta fixes the problem, but I assure you that it doesn't. People who join will just dismiss us as purists while Meta hijacks the Fediverse. And they won't understand our concerns since our concerns won't be VISIBLE to them. So, how to persuade people to leave Meta? 4 comments
@Xantulon Again, it's not Facebook that's joining that Fediverse. @atomicpoet no, but from my experience the people on Facebook are the most entrenched compared to other Meta brands @atomicpoet Please note, I'm not saying we shouldn't make it easy, appeal to their sense of humanity, etc. It's just that if they aren't there yet, there will have to be something compelling, really compelling, for them to even consider moving |

@atomicpoet I think you miss my point. The fedi is open, it's not going to quarentine, well bits of it might, but we have mitigations. Blocking is one of them.
The people I know on Facebook, for example, won't leave until there isn't a Facebook. It's part of how their world works. That's a small sample size, but of the people left on Facebook, it seems pretty prevalent. Even when their friends and family are on other platforms, they don't follow. Meta must stop functioning for these people
