Same owner ang sa Lemmy.world and Mastodon.world.

Yung owner naman ng Mastodon.social is the dev of Mastodon—and this is really concerning given his stance on the matter (the link in my previous reply) and that Mastodon instance admins signed an NDA with Meta. We can't know for sure who sold their souls to Meta, which is probably part of Meta's strat here--increase agitation among Mastodon users as well as sow distrust.

Am I falling for it?‌ Likely. Am I spreading FUD here? I suppose it can be argued that way. However, I think that a good way to see where they stand is their stance about de-federating from Threads. It ain't foolproof, since people can and will lie, but in the absence of better ways to divine their (the instance admins) intent, it's good enough for me.
