Short sighted mistake. Terrible Idea.

~~Adopt, Extend, Destroy~~ Embrace, Extend, Extinguish. That's the game plan. It's worked so many times in the past.

They don't need to do that when the fedi is a thousandth of the size of their social networks lol. It's hilarious that you think they need our user base.

It's not so much about wanting this user base as it is eliminating potential competition and maybe stamping out a place on the internet where people can freely and openly communicate.
