    I would counter that Meta has used their “tool” to in essence to support a genocide and that makes them untrustworthy.

    As for having open standards with no gatekeepers… that point is a false equivalency. We have open standard like encryption, but that doesn’t mean one should go post their private ssh keys online. There are bad actors in this world and Meta Inc is one of them.

        Meta is not a person and Meta as a corporation (and the people who run it) are complicit in war crimes.

        As for their users (which I am not conflating with Meta, the corporate entity), there is nothing stopping them from creating a Lemmy account.

        Again, Meta is not a person and Meta is not it’s users. There is nothing wrong with many of the people who use Meta products.

        Edited: I apologize, I removed part of the comment that was on retrospect, uncalled for.
