   facebook joining activitypub is the first step towards commercialising it, just like what happened with email

   do NOT let it happen. we already fucked up once

     @nano everyone will block it for sure
     
     But I'm really doubtful they will just join the fedi. As said in another thread, this doesn't goes in their plans to own the entire Internet. They'll have their own fediverse network and will probably have something where people can make their own instance within it. They can own and control all of it that way

     everyone, and i mean EVERYONE, needs to collectively fediblock the everliving shit out of anything to do with facebook to effectively bully them out of the space. if admins don't do this, we will legitimately lose the fediverse as we know it. if your instance refuses to or neglects to block anything facebook related, do your part and block their domains on your own account whenever we find out what those domains will be

     I think you're right about the Fakebook possibly subverting Fedi, email has been subverted a long time ago, and I even wrote about it quite a while ago: https://social.076.moe/url/78493 or http://ryocafe.i2p/blog/liberate-email-ignore-dkim/
     
     On the other hand, unlike email, everyone is spread over many instances, and setting up your own isn't all that hard.
     So if Fakebook really wanted to centralize it into their own hands, they'd probably need to get 80% or more of the world population using their instance, then cut everyone else off (like how Gab, """truth""" Soycial, and GC2 did), and make setting up your own instance as undoable as possible (or just make it seem like so).
     And so far, Gargeon did a good job resisting the corporate takeover, so that's good to see.
     
     Also, Fediblock has done more to destroy ActivityPub than Fakebook could possibly have done.
     Because Fediblock is by design a seggregation tool to exclude all the instances that only slightly disagree with the status quo (ironically the side that claims to be against the ruling ideology abide to exactly that ruling ideology, and it's those of us who don't who are being called ismphobia all the time).
