I am relieved, thank you folks.

I don't think allowing federation with a Meta project is a good idea.

To me, whether we welcome corps in general onto the platform is a separate issue. Meta specifically has a bad track record, and I don't think we should let them waltz into this space. I think their motives are incredibly suspect. Meta does not benefit by making ActivityPub any more usable or popular.
