I would like to know if I can feel safe here, or if I should pack it up and start looking elsewhere sooner rather than later.

If the kbin staff have already made there intentions clear, please let me know.

    I find the other demands going around even scarier to be honest.
    “I don’t want to federate with meta, but I also don’t want to federate with anyone else who does federate with meta”

    It’s so terrifying that there are whole instances that are now attempting to dictate who the rest of the fediverse is allowed to federate with. And frankly I think it’s a downward spiral if that is allowed. Because if they do it once, they will do it again and again.

      Don’t believe for a second that everyone wants to federate with everyone. The fediverse will be a collection of federation not wanting to federate with others, naturally. No gafam will ever federate with anyone.

      Take language for example, why would a french instance federate with a polish instance?

      Federating means keeping focus, you federate with instances with whom you have common interests. If we don’t keep focus then we will end up with the reddit problem and the race to popular meme content.
