Regardless of the negative aspects, Meta joining the Fediverse will definitely make the numbers of active users explode. This will probably bring the network and its concepts to many people and also a matter of public debate.

    a lot of that content is cross-posed from Xitter.

    Same here, lots of content cross-posted from reddit. Most of which seems to be bot posts with zero engagement, but lately I noticed many of the human posts, which do generate engagement, are themselves just cross-posts of these bot cross-posts.

    So basically we’re like 2nd level social media, feeding off what Xitter and reddit pre-filtered for us. To become mainstream would mean to reverse this flow. I’d already be happy if we could shut these bots off and be independent from what we left.
