Subject: What's going on with Meta?

To: @Gargron, @ruud, @jerry, @supernovae, @stux, @trumpet, @kev and other large instance admins

Rumors are tearing this place apart out here about secret deals with #Meta. The latest is that Meta has held #NDA meetings with some of you and they will federate with large instances under contracts providing financial support (1) (2).

This is a time for leadership, not silence. Please, what's going on?

@mastodonmigration I am not aware of any secret deals with Meta. As far as I can tell people are just making stuff up. There is little to comment on until Meta's platform launches.
@Gargron @mastodonmigration and this from Meta itself ? Any comment?

Nice they announce it
So I have a question
With the things I write, they will eat me up and troll around.
I learned my lesson on Twitter

If they make a platform, instance and incorporate here
Can someone help me there to completely block them?

Is a request to all out there who are here because the other social networks represent things that a lot do not support

I like it here, it should not be flooded by them, at least I do not want them, not anymore...

@si_irini @Chimaera @Gargron @mastodonmigration you have the option of blocking Meta's instance/plataform if you want, you don't need the admin/moderator to do that.

@serklarvel

Thanks, but how?

I also do not want the admin to do this, everyone should do what he wants
I know how to block a person, just want to know how to block a complete instance, unfortunately do not know.
