That's not even applicable here, and I thought we'd moved past spouting that on every post when it became apparent that meta actually weren't trying to kill the fediverse
The whole point is developing products to an open source standard, adding unneeded or complex features to ensure competition can't keep up and gain market share, then shutting down your product and killing the whole standard.
How does buying a company that makes proprietary products then closing down that company even come close to being the same thing?
That's not at all apparent. Isn't Threads still an unmoderated cesspit?
