Meta, Facebook's parent company, is looking to launch their own fediverse platform. Some people are already advocating to block it en masse.

I think fighting this will be a mistake. Instances ran by the likes of Tumblr and Meta can only bring more people into the fediverse, and when they’re in it will be easier for them to move around.

The great thing about AcitivityPub is it lets the people who want to be in larger more centralised servers connect to those who don’t fairly seamlessly.

Your sentiment though well placed seems to be incorrect, there is a big risk.
