      I have seen plenty apologists for Facebook/Twitter federation on Lemmy instances. Do not underestimate the enemy.

          Facebook, Google, Apple, Zoom and others’ chat platforms are made out of defederated XMPP, being the reason XMPP, a federated chat protocol itself, has never become popular in the past 20 years.
