I’m getting really tired of trying to run away from big tech, only to be ensnared again by the greed and/or naivety of sites who ultimately cave to the whims of big tech.
Mastodon has already caved, and the silence of lemmy’s and kbin’s developers over this matter isn’t exactly reassuring. Since I more or less still have my bags packed from leaving reddit, what are some other communities I could try that would be more resilient to corporate encroachment?
Owners of an instance can do whatever they want. That’s the whole point of the fediverse. If you don’t like it, then change to an instance that does what you like or create your own. It’s that simple.
We’re talking about the fediverse as a whole. The whole thing is threatened by meta.

Individuals are forgiven for certain things purely because their influence doesn’t threaten the entire Fediverse.
Being allowed to do what you want doesn’t mean it justified. That’s not what I said. Move to an instance with nicer mods or make your own. Really, that’s all there is to it. You’re looking for something to be annoyed with.
