@aral @Bossito@mastodon.green I keep seeing people repeating the "embrace, extend, extinguish" line, but I don't see how that applies here.

They can't do anything to existing fediverse communities. They can't put ads in our feeds. They can't control the protocol. Their users, if disruptive, can be blocked easily, either by other users or instance admins.

I don't use Facebook and I can't stand Meta, but I don't understand how they can inflict damage on our communities. What am I missing?
