    This is a reasonable response if you look at this situation in a vacuum. But sadly the open source community got burned a bunch of times already by big private corps. Of course they dont destroy all open source. If it helps them they actually help develop it and only try to overtake it in the democratic sense to gain the most voting and controlling power. But Facebook is absolutely not in a benefit of the doubt situation. They need to show a hell of a lot of good faith and need to be a tiny enough fraction of the userbase in the fediverse to be trusted in my opinion.

      Got some examples? And please, something other than xmpp. That feel apart under it’s own weight.

      When it comes to open source and open standards, Facebook have done quite a lot. React, react native, llama, graphql, relay, pytorch, docosaurus, zstd, flipper, redux, infer, lexical, jsx and a lot more at https://GitHub.com/facebook

      Facebook have already contributed a lot to open source and open standards. Why do you say they won’t continue to do that?
