    just wait 5 years, the fediverse will either be dead or swallowed up by meta. the only two things it has to go for it is the decentralized nature and the absence of open advertisements.

      I’ve heard that about FOSS projects before they really blew up. Good things do happen sometimes.

        Yeah I wouldn’t be surprised if fb or Reddit started their own Lemmy instances, which they would use to post ads, and have some user-transparent integration with their native platform.

        But I bet a lot of instances would de-fed them like you say.

        yeah, maybe, it will just keep staying under the radar and at some point someone will have to spend some cash to keep the lights on.
