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?

What does “dies” mean in this circumstance? We already only have 1% of their users. Are we afraid that access toore content here will cause users to leave for Facebook?
Dies means activity slows to the point that the site isn’t worth using. It’s not dead right now for example. I have people to talk to.
Or worse, Facebook forks activitypub and then once most domains are on the forked version they kill it. Or make it part of their walled garden.
I’m hoping the large majority of people here on the fediverse are here because they prefer an outlet away from soul sucking corps like Meta and won’t want to touch their forked version.
I guess the fedipact is a test of that.
What is that, I’m unfamiliar with it.
