@Gargron I think the idea is great and the more we introduce people to decentralization (whether federation, blockchain decentralization, etc), the better. I'm just concerned about the motives. Meta never does anything without ulterior motives that allow them to harvest data, sell that data and train AI with that data.

If they're doing this solely to crawl the Fediverse for data to train AI, is this really a positive?

Again, I really like the idea of getting more people onboarded with decentralized social media (especially since that's what the WWW was always supposed to be) but I feel like it really isn't a positive thing, given what we know about Meta.

Ah well, I guess we'll all have to hope for the best but expect the worst.
