@Tattooed_mummy so, to get things straight, all this drama is bc Zuckerberg, not being happy enough with burning billions of dollars in that giant failure of the #metaverse, wakes up months later with the idea of "building an alternative to #twitter" (hey, Mark, welcome to the club, nobody thought about it before) to try to make sense of his life in the Silicon Valley Big Tech pinnacle. Gosh, this is even more depressing than thinking the #fedi was an actual threat to them.

@Tattooed_mummy and even more depressing is that people here are arguing so much because loser Zuck doesn't know how to get investors anymore.

"#Meta opted to use the open, decentralized social networking protocol #ActivityPub for this project, which is already used by #Mastodon. That doesn't guarantee interoperability between the two competing services, but could make it easier for Mastodon accounts to migrate to #Project92. The reverse is also possible, but it seems unlikely Meta would want to make it easy for accounts to migrate away from its ecosystem."

That’s the ‘teeny-tiny’ catch. There will be more come. Just watch.
