MODERATORS
Yes, I think we should defederate. Don't give them free content, and don't let them monetize Fediverse.
Also, I'm not really interested in having the millions of Facebook and Instagram users here, it's one of the worst and most bland people and content internet can offer, right behind Tik-Tokers. I don't see how it would add any value, other than moderation issues.
YSK : Meta is also a threat to the privacy of fediverse users, if there are fediverse instances that remain federated with Meta.

You make a good point. My initial Reddit interactions, for example, consisted of involvement. Before the API thing it had become the same thing as 9Gag: a place to just doom scroll for the entire time spent.
The content becomes samey, or repost central.
