@chrismessina @tonyg @alexeheath It is exciting to see more ActivityPub adoption. This is huge.

@stux @Gargron @chrismessina @tonyg @alexeheath so does this mean y'all are planning on federating with Meta when the time comes?

@grishka @chrismessina it's up to the admins really, but for me personally I don't want anything I post crossing into a Meta owned company or product. I don't want them to use my data to help them serve more ads. They are a platform with a well documented track record of privacy violations and shady behavior.

@chrismessina @tonyg @alexeheath @Gargron do you think *any* of our servers will be able to handle the traffic from a sudden influx of lets say 10 million instagram accounts suddenly entering the fediverse?

@liaizon @chrismessina @tonyg @alexeheath Yes. Why would that create a lot of traffic? People have to follow each other first.

@Gargron @chrismessina @tonyg @alexeheath But even the last wave of a few million people coming from Twitter we were having little servers flopping over left and right just from all the new activity

@liaizon @chrismessina @tonyg @alexeheath The hypothetical 10M users would not be on the little servers, but on Meta's. Unless you subscribe to all 10M, it wouldn't affect you.

@Gargron @liaizon @chrismessina @tonyg @alexeheath Unless Meta doesn't respect the protocol and sends all their traffic in the hope that their content appears in the federated timeline. Is there some check somewhere to make sure an incoming activity is actually asked for by someone locally ?

@rakoo "respect the protocol" implies that the protocol is actually solid but the reality of the situation is that AP is being figured out as we go and there are a lot of unanswered and unfigured out questions and basically no one "in control" in the sense that there is many competing directions and ways to take it. This is some uncharted water here and we will see where it leads but regardless it will have large consequences going forward
