I expect that #qoto here will federate with the #Meta servers, as it federates with just about everyone short of CSA or active DoS attacks. And that's fine with me.

On the other hand, I'm very sympathetic to those who decide otherwise, and are unwilling to federate with the Meta servers on the basis that Meta has a history of being evil, and are almost certainly up to something undesirable. So their not-federating is also fine with me.

One of the great things about the #fediverse is that different servers have different policies! There's no need to talk everyone else into being the same...

@ceoln

I was not aware of this... @freemo what are your intentions?

@lucifargundam @ceoln

To let eqch user decide for themselves if they wqnt their qccoubt seen by meta or not. Users can block the whole server when it goes live.

@freemo @lucifargundam @ceoln Perfect. Do we have any announcement capabilities so one does not miss it? I was not aware that the meta swamp is close to opening.
On second thought: if one does not want ones posts imported to meta when they open, would it be possible to pre-block?

@admitsWrongIfProven @freemo @lucifargundam @ceoln
YES PLEASE TO *PRE-BLOCK* IDEA -
[Meta (Facebook) discourse]

Can we do that now so we users don't have to do anything more / don't forget. Feels best having given ok now to do it...

... Also a tutorial how to block after welcome but for some of use that's too late! Administration could do this in a few clicks as and when much easier probably... thoughts?

@freeschool @freemo @lucifargundam @ceoln It would be the absolutely best possible thing if it came to a opt-in at the moment the servers go live. But i guess that would take building an infrastructure for it, so most likely too much effort, right @freemo?

New users... it'd take an individual blocklist preset for new users to do this, i guess? Like what individual blocking would do for us too, if we can get the servernames beforehand.
