@darth They've been holding back by not implementing interoperability standards. Been seeing too many instances of it. They come across as another wannabe-twitter kind of organization.

@nilesh @darth facts, and I worry hard that it's too late to stop it.

They don't respect AP or any other open standard they "seemingly" adopt.

See the latest "Opengraph" but not really Fediverse creator tag.

The most worrying concern for me is their refusal to add certain features because they just don't have to add anything they don't want, they already control the way 75% of users interact with Fedi. Like moderation tools, quote posts, and limiting replies.

I've been saying for a few years now that we need a democratically-run org for FOSS development; this illustrates why.
