Can Meta scrape the data off other apps like mastodon from federated communities? I don't exactly know how that works. I'm assuming mastodon and other not profit based apps don't track any data so how would meta joining the fediverse change it?
I think it's all but given that meta would have the largest number of users using its apps in the fediverse. Threads already has 2 million sign-ups in hours so it would be a miss to just defederate from it and lock down millions of users from interacting with meta users. Let's see how it goes.
Edit: 5 million sign-ups in 4 hours according to zuck

Eh... All the data is already with meta through Instagram, it's users is the target here. I'm sure most of Instagram users aren't complaining that much about collection of data.

You probably found a bunch of people with niche (if any) interests and/or friends from Twitter or other social media who are active enough for your feed to be populated. A lot of people use twitter to follow news, celebrities, journalists and shitposting accounts with large following as there's lots of discussions under tweets with massive reach. Most people don't interact themselves at all but just scroll. Mastodon doesn't have these big accounts as of now so there's not much activity for the majority of regular twitter users.
More platform instability could be in Twitter’s future, with the company reportedly refusing to pay Google for the Cloud services contract the two signed in 2018..

I have the same username setup on sh.itjust.works and kbin. I'm trying to understand if it's just one account or two. Bit confusing.
