     I spent some time writing and realized that the #FediBridge people are absolutely crazy.
     
     For all of its flaws, the #fediverse has pretty great controls and awareness of #consent, licensing, media ownership and #privacy.
     
     These people, however... I just can't believe that someone can be this short-sighted. It's difficult for me to call them anything but bootlickers, since FediBridge only ever benefits corporations and the businesses which they integrate with. There's no real benefit or gain for ActivityPub-based networks, that I can see.
     
     There's this argument, which says that the transition from proprietary social platforms should be easier if you can stay in touch with people from the other platform.
     
     Yet that's a flawed take. Sure, it's right on its face, but it misses the more important part: it takes away any incentive to actually switch networks if you can stay on the proprietary one.
     
     Why would you switch to Fedi if you can interact with folks here from BlueSky, Threads, or whatever other evil platforms there are?
     
     You wouldn't, because you don't need to any more.
     
     So here's a thread where I lose my shit, because I never truly thought that anyone can be this... let's just say, ignorant.
