I have been trying to raise awareness for a long time.

What can I say?

With 1.3 mn active users, #Mastodon is but an ant in comparison to the 3,000 mn users of #Facebook.

#FB was created as a macho website and it's become a toxic space.

Maybe the #Fediverse should have a vote if it really wants to be hooked up to such a place?

Any individuals would still be free to join.

If #Meta were #Twitter, I'm sure about the vote.
#Meta is in the same league, though.

#FOSS does not mean that corporations can all join, regardless of their behavior + agenda.
