But what do you do when a known Dictator walks in?
Meta is going to establish itself, and go back to old habits once it’s on top in the fediverse.

They wouldn’t even try to interact with fediverse, if they couldn’t make hooks to keep people from jumping ship. They’re not stupid, and they know nobody in their network would jump ship just because they chose not to federate.
You argue that people who argue against you are “trump of the fediverse”? You sound like you’re the kind of person who would give Trump a chance. What’s the worst he could do?
Turns out he practically redefined what a President could do. And none of it good.
You do realize that Meta will likely implement incentives to stay on their platform, and weed out other federations over time, right?
They’re absolutely planning to grab Fediverse members, and will make efforts to prevent the other way around. Your friends will stay with the meta product because it’s more convenient for them to do so.
You honestly seem to be more rooting for meta than the fediverse, since you seem certain that “anyone who disagrees could never be convinced otherwise”…but you seem to have only taken into account fediverse users doing this, not meta users. Like you’re arguing very one-sidedly.
If you can’t convince them to jump ship now, I just don’t see what changes when Meta provides them (as meta users) more options, not less.
Personally I wasn’t a fan of the sorting algorithims. I like Kbin’s sorting more.
I’m sure there’s others who’ve been able to find what they want though, but the sorting was a big reason for me to try kbin out.
While I do think that probably would happen
The most likely thing i’m expecting is people will vote out the r/adviceanimals /wholesomememes mod because of how much it was advertised that he took over the subreddit from the original mods.
Then they will put him back and disable the vote feature.
Optionally it just immediately becomes found out that certain mods can’t be voted out to begin with
I mean…if you want unmodded entirely, don’t you just go to 4chan?
You need some moderation and they can’t all be exploitive self entitled if that can be argeed on. it has be working somehow
