       @stux while I've waffled on this back and forth, I'm of the opinion that block from the start makes the most sense.Meta makes it's money through surveillance capitalism. While defederating doesn't block Meta from mining the fediverse, it does offer the best defense. I chose my instance on the fediverse in part to separate from the surveillance cap systems of the centralized web. I don't want to lose that haven and do not have the resources to start my own instance.

       @Graycot On the one hand, I like the idea of moving to something beyond bespoke passwords for every service. If we can develop a more secure authentication approach, I'm for it. I also appreciate the implicit two factor nature for passkeys (something you have: the device with the key, something you know: the pin/pw/pattern.)On the other hand, I don't like the marrying of the two to a corporate device. Passkey may be cool if there are independent, FOSS options just as good as the corporate.
