Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

I'm not sure this is a level headed take... They say, when someone tells you who they are, believe them. Meta has already made it very clear who they are; I'm not sure skepticism is really in order.

And mastodon users who seem to be the most vocal of fediverse users on this no issue can already block by domain without federation or de federation needing to be mentioned.

Meta don't need to federate to get your data either. So I have to wonder why we have so many posts all saying the same thing attempting to rile users up.

Personally I don't care either way if meta/threads fails or succeeds I won't be using it and I won't be following any of their users. I would much rather be reading positive things about what people are doing in the fediverse than doom and gloom
