Robert W. GehlThe admin of the Mastodon instance Fosstodon.org, Kev Quirk, notes that the anti-Meta folks are saying Meta isn’t welcome on the fediverse. But, he notes, “no single person/entity owns the fediverse. So who are you to say who’s welcome and who isn’t?” The fediverse is based on an open technical protocol that anyone can use....

@rwg ftr: this is outdated
@slink Curse of writing books about contemporary topics.
@slink Although, to be fair to me, the post from Quick I am quoting is still online:
@rwg right. but fosstodon has new admins.
@slink Yes, indeed.
The good news about that bit of the book is it is far, far less about a particular instance (e.g., Fosstodon) and more about a particular position people took in relation to Threads.
Speaking of which: do you know if Fosstodon currently federates with Threads?
@rwg i can see threads accounts, so it looks like it. but i never noticed anything of relevance from there.
