I get meta evil, but aren’t we just blocking out any users from accessing the wider fediverse?

    Facebook can bootstrap their product with federated content made by users who are in the fediverse because they don’t want to support a company like Facebook. By not defederating, you would be helping Facebook every time you post a comment or make a post because you would be giving Facebook free content to further their for-profit goals.

    Edit: they will also be taking fediverse content and displaying it next to ads.
