The content you post on the fediverse is already public. You’re not giving Meta any less information by defederating.

You can choose a different moderation service. That’s the point.

But worse than anyone being able to follow that person because they’re using a platform where moderation is separate from identity, as in AtProto.

The Fediverse is, by definition, anything that supports ActivityPub. If BlueSky supported ActivityPub – which is what the bridge was meant to accomplish – then it would be a part of the Fediverse.

By using the Fediverse, you implicitly opt in to having your content federated between different platforms. How is this any different?

Seeing the reaction to the bridge, it seems that most Mastodon users don’t want AtProto to be compatible with ActivityPub.

So you didn’t get the choice at all? I guess people who sign up this way are going to be really confused why they can’t follow some accounts their friends can.

How about an advertisement poster for parking lessons, to get the point across?

Do you have any evidence that Trump wants to imprison and execute LGBT people?

Do you have a link to the research? I’m a math educator and I’d like some good materials for encouraging my students.

If the situation is as you described, you are definitely in the right.
