Meta (parent of Facebook, instagram…etc) want to have their content to become federated and part of Lemmy and Mastodon.

Meta has been asking Mastodon and Lemmy server admins to have a “off the record” discussion panel. They told meta to fuck off.

Here’s a post about the email meta has been sending to admins and his response.

one admin told them that. some of them have actually met with Meta after signing an NDA earlier this week.

That is true. Albeit attending a meeting doesn't necessarily mean you're gonna be selling your soul to Meta. Hopefully, those that do decide to attend stand up for the communities that are being built in the Fediverse.

Tbh, I'd really be interested into hearing what is said in that meeting...

They made the admins sign nda's so its unlikely we will hear anything about it
