Meta exploring plans for Twitter rival
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-64917397
As we have been discussing this recently, just posting the BBC tech news report. Clearly at this stage we are not fully sure what Meta are planning to do.
I think what we CAN be sure of is:
Agressive marketing to get people to use their new platform
Early integration with things like Websites, word press
Algorithms that will help people find THEM and related software first
Speculation : Some sort of hidden agenda
And probably other tactics.
As a community we are strong, established, so we can counter this, by making sure integration works really well and we just carry on innovating and developing, but importantly spread the word.

They want to capture the luvvy audience fleeing Twitter who are finding that without the algo their drama goes unnoticed on the #Fediverse.
