This is all on the open web. If they find it useful to create surveillance profiles of fediverse users they will do so, whether we defederate or not. That’s the current price of being on the internet.

Hopeful the fediverse has enough built-in resilience that Meta’s intention don’t matter and can be safely ignored

Can’t overstate how great they are if you hate flossing.

Depends on how many of those data slurping categories I can disable on iPhone. I would at least like to try it.

I was somewhat optimistic about this app given that they were embracing federation, felt like an important milestone like when AOL had to stick a full featured web browser in their app. But this is just gross. Don’t want to be a data slut for Zuck.
