I personally am quite against it. I joined Lemmy to stay away from the toxicity on Meta’s platforms. I don’t want any corporate bodies on the fediverse either and possibly doing to the fediverse what Google did to XMPP

Just like Google did with XMPP, most of those improvements will be for Threads/Meta only while making the rest of the fediverse look subpar.
Honestly - good. If that keeps the “normal” users on that platform, which will likely be defederated, I’m perfectly fine with that.
There’s a large population difference between the current fediverse and XMPP in the past. I think there are enough people who would stay on the non-mainstream platform to keep it alive.
Users on the Fediverse are also much more wary of large tech companies this time around.
