Disagree, federating with meta will kill the fedi. It will put all power in big tech.
Which still doesn't mean fedi should cooperate with meta or any other big tech, I dare to say not even with any company.
Facebook / meta has too much history of abuse. OTOH I don't think it's necessary to fully defederate, but setting a server defaults per-account to filter their instance would reduce their influence and risk of abuse while still allowing people to opt in to connecting to them
This is not cooperation, this is take over by meta. So far I see most fedi users are aganist federation with meta, I'm glad that's the case.
Same story as XMPP
Expecting the kiddies to actually learn from the past is too much. Because human beings in general don't learn well from the past.
