Lack of trust has nothing to do with being an open platform. Or rather, its a very stupid argument to tell that there is no reason because its a open platform.

Everyone on activityhub is mostly non-profit and dont have the intention to be the number one and rich. Meta/Facebook on the other hand is trying to be number one and extinguish everything. Aka EEE

And your evidence they're coming in to "extinguish" the "threat" of at most a few milion fediverse users is a failed Microsoft playbook from the 90s that didn't even target open source software? Lol alright

The evidence is just not really given, its a conclusion because Facebook is a pure capitalistic company that loves to break laws for money. Why would they not wont to be the number one?

Well first of all, I don't have to provide evidence to disprove a statement you made without evidence.

Second, my point is that they're a capitalist company, that's exactly why they want to be the only one with your data.
