Watch them somehow join the Fediverse.

That would be hilarious, getting upvoted by someone's Petpet or something.

Good for them! I wish them luck, now that they managed to escape their evil empire and set out on a more positive path.

Omg I wonder if I can still log in. I think last time was 2017.
