Exactly my thoughts on this topic.
How could that be done? Anyone with the resources can host an instance, and there are plenty of instances with a low entry bar.
If the fediverse grows enough, we can be sure some entities will join not because they share our values, but because they see our value.
I don't see how we could prevent that or ensure only good guys enter. The fediverse is open by design.
@Spzi @Hotchpotch I'd say we probably can't ensure it—however it certainly wouldn't won't happen if we push everyone to use it at all costs as they said. Not that I think you're advocating for that.
The article is not about single persons who might be trolls or whatever to qualify as a "bad guy". But about megacorporations like Meta. The best way to deal with them is-in my opinion-to not cooperate and defederate them as soon as they start to enter.
Yes, sorry for being unclear. I meant the bad 'guy' Meta. Maybe continuing with 'entity' would have been better:
I tend to agree. Still quite new to the topic.
