Why would it kill AP if there is a set of users that don't care about those features but just their privacy?

Just don't use Meta's app or switch. I just don't understand personally how this removed every other server instance using AP out of the equation if FB would just be closing themselves off even if they did build something better or useful.

    We need to remember that ActivityPub and this entire fediverse is only to allow small, individual communities to live without a major corporation able to pull the plug. It's not privacy centric at all. In fact, quite far from it.

    I don't understand that either? I thought the Fediverse was privacy first driven? I don't really understand how it couldn't be when you can wall off Threads if you choose to do so?
