@joshbressers@infosec.exchange This. So much this. The "wait and see" attitude that some people have with Meta is concerning for this very scenario.

@simplenomad@rigor-mortis.nmrc.org @joshbressers@infosec.exchange I don't think defederation should be the default for whatever Meta's service even ends up being. I do think that there should be plenty of instances that do, so that the people who are actively running away from FB and corporate social media have an option, but I think defederating from instances that don't defederate from Meta would be exactly the sort of cannibalistic division that would enable Meta to get a larger share of Fediverse users.
