I think it's pretty safe to say that the majority of us are here to avoid another corporate takeover of our preferred platforms. It would seem to me to be a tad irresponsible to allow Facebook into our space with open arms, allowing them to hoover up our data. I would love to keep using Lemmy.world, but will happily change instances if need be, and I feel many share that sentiment.

I take it you got tired before getting through the first paragraph even the first time reading? No one is talking about "defeat EEE" - it's about protecting yourself against attempts to use the EEE strategy. And the article explains exactly how defederating is relevant in that regard.

    I read the whole thing the first time it was presented to me.

    Yeah and it spouts vague platitudes while avoiding specifics. Maybe it’s the sysadmin in me but that isn’t worth shit.

    How does defederating “protect against attempts to use the EEE strategy”?

    Maybe I could see a valid point if you could instantly have all instances defederate now and forever but you can’t.
