Let's say the worst case scenario happens with kbin and Meta. What are some alternate sites/instances that would be more resilient to enshitification? (kbin.social)

I'm getting really tired of trying to run away from big tech, only to be ensnared again by the greed and/or naivety of sites who ultimately cave to the whims of big tech.

Mastodon has already caved, and the silence of lemmy's and kbin's developers over this matter isn't exactly reassuring. Since I more or less still have my bags packed from leaving reddit, what are some other communities I could try that would be more resilient to corporate encroachment?

Given the fediverse is pretty open by design, meta doesn't even need to be part of it to spy if they wanted. It's the EEE strategy that people are more worried about.

Given the fediverse is pretty open by design, meta doesn’t even need to be part of it to spy if they wanted.

They can't gather all the same information that they could from a phone app, and we've seen what permissions they ask for on that. They also can't manipulate the feed to drive engagement by fostering hate like they can with their own site/app.

It’s the EEE strategy that people are more worried about.

Hence the "get them off meta and onto other instances and then defederate" thing.
