I didn’t realise that Meta was becoming/is already compatible with the Fediverse.

I deleted my Facebook account long ago, I saw what it was becoming and decided I didn’t need that in my life.

What are everyone’s thoughts on this.

See: this post for where I first read about it.

    I guess it could be possible, but looking at the XMPP <-> GoogleTalk situation, it is very unlikely.

    • Embrace the open standard
    • Extend it with some propriety add-on, and because you have 1000 times users, you now become the “standard”
    • Extinguish the open version of the standard because users expect that all the things should work together; and now the open versions are considered “less” because they cannot work with the propriety bits.
