Since news leaked out 2 days ago that Facebook has approached Mastodon developers and admins - requiring non-disclosure agreements first - the whole microverse (i.e. mastodon / pleroma etc, the micro-blogging part of fedi) has been talking about nothing but that and Facebook’s imminent entry into the fediverse with an as yet not clearly defined entity called Barcelona or p92. This woud be very roughly comparable to Reddit saying they are going to federate with lemmy.
Yet here on lemmy I could only find a relatively small discussion.

Did the lemmyverse not know or just not care that much?
I guess since it’s a twitter competitor it doesn’t affect Lemmy as much right now.
That’s unfortunately not really how this works. We are all connected, which is why you can see content from kbin and mastodon on lemmy and vice versa.
The mastodon community is talking about blocking meta instances from connecting but that is easier said than done
