Nice, I got the vibes you'd do that without having to announce it but I'm glad to hear the commitment. Makes it easier to feel better about building connections here knowing they won't be thrown apart when Meta comes to town.

Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

War is coming. Thank you for taking a strong stance now rather than later.
I salute you!
Good choice, who wants to deal with a hundred thousand instagram users sitting in between every fediverse user.
I don’t know if I have a settled opinion for or against defederating from Meta instances, but I know enough to say I absolutely respect the decision to.
I may appreciate more exposure to federating social media, but I also appreciate that Meta has a problematic track record. Besides, my shifting away from Reddit has me realizing that juggling accounts is not as difficult as I thought. If I end up having a reason to get on a Meta instance, it wouldn’t be an issue to make a compatible handle that can communicate there.
Awesome!
You guys rock!
Meta was one of the killers of democracy. No one should ever affiliate with it.
Really pleased to hear this. I will be staying on Beehaw for the foreseeable future, I'm on the same page as the admins.
Thank goodness.
Thank you!!!! Say NO to META's disregard of privacy!!!
Thanks! I totally support this move
thank you for doing this
Glad to hear it. Over the years, Meta has shown that they don’t deserve the benefit of the doubt. They’d have to prove themselves, which I suspect they are able (but 100% not willing) to do.
kudos
More instances should consider this pact.
Great, fuck Meta, fuck Zuck.
What about twitters project?
Twitter's project? You mean Jack Dorsey's BlueSky? It doesn't do ActivityPub - it's not part of the fediverse
