This is a reminder to lemmy users, that this new meta expriement will use the ActivityPub protocol, meaning that it can interact with other lemmy instances, please urge your lemmy instance admins to de-federate from this crap as soon as it launches!
But why? Isn't the whole point of federation that we can interact with people in other communities? Don't we want these big platforms to adopt ActivityPub? Completely walling them off seems counterproductive
Not defending Meta, just curious
there is a very good chance that this project by meta is the thin end of the wedge

That seems reasonable. I think I’ll throw in my social security number and DNA sample for good measure… just in case they need it.

Meta rolling into the fediverse like the martians in Mars Attacks.
“Don’t run! We’re you’re your friends!”
Isn't that just...everything?
Like is there anything they aren't requesting?
Yeah, he's a big fan of access. May as well just make an extra category marked "everything".
Jesus Christ Zuck. It looks like a lizard is running a mammalian study
