Yes it is.

You can make and propose a mailing list without a pop up…

I did, thank you. And Ploum doesn’t describe the state of XMPP before Google Talk. I think this information change all the conclusions.

Thanks to Google and Facebook it was more widely used. When they stopped their involvement, XMPP went back to its previous state.

The Fediverse is already popular. If Meta embrace it before leaving it, it will come back to its present state, like XMPP. But unlike XMPP, the previous state is a good one. Thus it’s not something I fear.

I do tend to think that we should defederate, but the XMPP example seems irrelevant to me. It’s more like an email situation. That’s something I fear.

XMPP is still alive, and is just what it was before Google used it. I don’t understand this argument.

I tend to agree. We should be able to delete what we wrote.

Still, it’s fun to see people criticizing Lemmy for that on Reddit, which does the same thing.
