If Facebook does change it's name won't that mean that the millions of people on that platform will have to change links etc on websites and other places (brochures, marketing materials etc) to point to the new profile.
Given the amount of money people spend doing this, they are perhaps going to be very very angry about it
This presents us as a fediverse a massive opportunity to promote fedi as an alternative and perhaps a small window to get people on here instead.
After all you own instance is your own, no one else is going to decide to just the name to suit them
Power to the users

@zleap They probably have a plan to handle this relatively smoothly like some sort of redirect or something.
@freemo Good point but the window of opportunity is there.
@zleap I would love to see this be the thing that kills facebook, so lets hope and pray and see what happens. Sadly they may just be too large of a beast to kill by organic means alone.
@freemo What would happen if we all used the hashtag #TheYearOfTheFediverse and shared the join Mastodon logo ?
