For me, the fediverse succeeding is not about mass adoption of ActivityPub at all costs, its about more people adopting the values of the fediverse. This is where we went because we were tired of having our social lives controlled by the whims of billionaires. We wanted control over our digital lives. We wanted privacy.
Being excited that the billionaires have their sights set on the fediverse is abandoning the reason we came here to begin with.
