@bretcarmichael this is yet another reason that I'm nervous that Meta helps fund the SWF (social web foundation)

https://socialwebfoundation.org/ shows a list of their "partners" at the bottom.

@BeAware I understand that. All this makes federated nonprofits important for free speech being able to avoid partisan political pressure. Zuckerberg is a more competent leader than Musk. Pandering aside, I don’t think he’ll rock the boat in any real way. I imagine SWF would refuse the money.
