I would like to know if I can feel safe here, or if I should pack it up and start looking elsewhere sooner rather than later.

If the kbin staff have already made there intentions clear, please let me know.

    If you’re truly worried about federating with Meta, you should probably also avoid all the other products they have their fingers in.

    This includes all their web properties:

    • Instagram
    • WhatsApp
    • Onavo
    • Oculus VR
    • Beat Games
    • Kustomer
    • Lofelt

    But this also includes many web technologies that are ubiquitous around the web. Meta has either created or contributes code and resources to:

    • React.js
    • MySql
    • Memcached
    • HHVM
    • Cassandra
    • Scribe
    • Hadoop
    • Hive
    • Apache Thrift
    • Varnish

    I suspect you’ll have a hard time finding any website on earth that doesn’t use at least one of these technologies.

        my point is that the OP is grandstanding and exaggerating by comparing possible enshittification with his very safety being at risk. so if it’s a life and death matter, he should be taking extreme steps to avoid his bogeyman.

      Sorry if tbis is dumb of me but why should we avoid ever using any web tech that has been associated with Meta, just because we are worried about E-E-E affecting Activity Pub?
