My optimistic take is: if that happens, someone will fork the shit out of it since it's entirely open source on the other hand, what's gonna happen when Meta starts dictating how AP works?

BeAware :fediverse:

@frncs.eu yeah, that is true too. That's why i haven't been around much.

And I'm not entirely sure which would happen first honestly.

To me, it's all just a big waiting game and from this side, it feels like shit because for AP users, we'd be losing something we had, freedom from corporate control.

BlueSky I feel is a bit different because it's always been corporate control. It's just a matter of when that corporation will decide to make the whole protocol worse for the sake of profit.

Which of course is where the two issues are pretty much the same.
