@evan you have an outright incorrect implication tbh. If you answer "big companies" argument with E-mail stats, you need to compare share of E-mail users who use a "big company" service vs self-hosters vs medium companies.

 @jonn so, you're saying that people should preemptively defed Meta, because Google defedding XMPP killed XMPP? @kaleissin @evan @jonn no, non admins are spamming fediblock about facebook which is not the same. suspending facebook doesn't even address the concerns people have about it as a suspended instance can still pull all your posts and info from your instance, so it creates a false sense of security and facebook still gets your data.  |
@evan finally, when we compare Facebook's move with ActivityPub to Google, we seldom compare it to E-mail. We compare it to XMPP, which got extinguished by Google Talk defederation.
Even more finally: analogy is not an argument. While arguing with people who use analogy as an argument, it's more sound to point that out rather than finding a counter-analogy which may or may not be analogous enough. 🙂
