Why isn't anyone talking about this? It looks like Meta wants to compete with Twitter with a new Instagram microblogging app which will probably be compatible with Mastodon
Key Point of the article:
*“Soon, our app will be compatible with certain other apps like Mastodon,” Instagram’s slide says. “Users on these other apps will be able to search for, follow and interact with your profile and content if you’re public, or if you’re private and approve them as followers.” *
@jherazob @lars Generally Fediverse users don't want their posts globally searchable
Why is that? I feel like i'm missing something obvious here but wouldn't that be a positive?
I can sort of see that for mastodon as it's meant to be ephemeral but is the Lemmy community also resistant to indexing?
@me @jherazob maybe wrong to generalize, but everyone who tried so far (including many indie makers) were met with harsh pushback
