and now #meta is trying to run into the #fediverse with #threads, and do to #mastodon what they did to #myspace in 2010. with the same tactics:
1. a public excited friendly face of #interop
2. drain of users
3. when the competitor is a dried husk, turn around and fanatically prevent any interop with #facebook on any level whatsoever
people need to understand what meta is
and have no illusions about what they have done, and what they will do
They've seen Meta doing this to others for 20 years, but for some reason delude themselves into thinking that this time it will be different. They think they are special and Meta will treat them with respect, unlike everyone else that Meta has ever dealt with.
And when it isn't different, they will claim they had no way of knowing, that no one warned them. 😞
The worst part is that the people who suffer most are innocent bystanders who end up the targets of hate spread on Meta's platforms, in many cases deadly hate.
