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?
Discussion is small because lemmy isn’t integrated much with mastodon and kbin isn’t as greatly integrated into lemmy on multiple ways. Kbin got a limited lemmy integration likely just to have content.
Kbin generally is way smaller than the lemmy user base.
