@coachtony @liaizon @J12t @jon @stevetex @mmasnick @Gargron @haubles @anildash @manton The fact that FB is likely to become a primary marketing voice for the Fediverse is real. This has pros and cons to give some thought to.
I saw this movie before when I was at Netscape. Microsoft did an incredibly effective job marketing the Internet to the world, effectively echoing and magnifying Netscape's own talking points. They also copied everything we built so they became the face of the internet.
@mike @coachtony @J12t @jon @stevetex @mmasnick @Gargron @haubles @anildash @manton stepping out in front of this before they make their next move and making a collective statement that this space is made from the bottom up by humans and it is not for the taking by corporations might be a positive step in the right direction. Not to say that they wont still do whatever they are going to do, but some signal that action will be taken if they move in the wrong direction is needed.
