This may be a very unpopular take on here, but I feel that some people on #ActivityPub / #Fediverse are showing some elitism.
While I do understand the very real threat that #Meta poses to communities and understand the want...I'm sorry...NEED to protect them, a lot more people are out here trying to take some moral high ground.
It just seems really weird to me outside of the desire to be trendy by hating on the next big thing, but also being very assholey to those who choose to or have to use it in order to communicate.
Understand, for most people, the Fediverse is complicated and they want something simple.
Others have businesses where their clientele are on other platforms.
I feel that the hostility that people are showing to the platform and to those who use it because "it's cool to dump on #Meta" are actually going to be what hinders people from coming over from other platforms when they realize it's just not working for them.
It's the reason why Black folks don't want to come here and rely on #Threads, #Spill, #Hive, #Bluesky, or even #Twitter still.
Honestly, if you aren't going to use it, don't.
That's it.
No need to harp on it.
I'm sure we all know why.
