I'm new here, and I dont have a very developed opinion about this, but my gut says that Meta is going to try to absorb (embrace, extend, extinguish) the fediverse.
I've seen a lot of good reasons to do that, but I think that it might just be to get at the software. It seems silly that they would do that given that it's free, but also they would be destroying a competitor at the same time, and really I've been working long enough that it wouldn't surprise me.
Anyway, i think that maybe democracy would be a great way to decide a question like this, and it would also be interesting to figure out how to set that up in a way that the people asking the question can know whether someone is trying to cheat.
