  • Most of the world likely doesn’t use SMS anymore

    That has not been the case from what I’ve seen (I’m Australian). The only widespread methods of communication I see are SMS and iMessage. Things like Discord and Instagram are only used among younger people.

    Edit: Actually people do use Facebook messenger. Don’t know how many though






  • What? Defederating doesn’t fix that.

    1. Meta doesn’t join the fediverse
    2. Meta introduces convenient, cool and innovative features not originally on fediverse code
    3. Everyone wants new features, but features are locked under propietary code.
    4. Everyone flocks to meta’s product.
    5. Meta is now the fediverse and the fediverse is nothing but a husk of its former self

    The solution is 1: to make sure users understand that it’s a bad idea to flock to meta’s instance, and 2: to implement that feature in the fediverse if everyone likes it so much they’re willing to leave. The solution is not defederating now because of the posibbilty that they do that in the future.
