Comment on If we're going to have an effective strategy against FB/Meta, we should clear up some misconceptions around defederation

  And that’s part of the point, as well: There are tons of people on here putting forth the effort to post content on a deliberately non-corporate platform, to make lemmy.world a great place – as well as other instances.

  Meta is a for profit company. Everything they do is to turn a dollar. Rest assured, they would not have any intention of attempting to integrate with the Fediverse if they did not have some plan to make money off of it. And I for one do not consent to Meta and/or their advertisers profiting off of the work and content I have posted here.

    We should 100% promote more stuff here, that doesn’t take away from the points above

  I agree to an extent, but that won’t stay the case if other good people making high quality content choose the other platform because it’s not closed off.

  I think that’s a legitimate risk to worry about

    The content creators here are mostly former reddit content creators, we’re sick of corporations abusing our good will.
