    I don’t see any possibility of meta investing millions or billions of dollars into a product in which they don’t dictate how it works, they will either have their own fork or a completely separate project IMHO.

      @Kaldo We already have flipboard, Mozilla and others investing heavily. So I don’t think it’s out of the question. But we do not really know of profitable the fediverse is for investment yet though. We see profitable apps, but we haven’t seen profitable platforms. Most of it is umbrella platforms that utillize community funding and engagement to keep a larger userbase. But it’s not a very long-winded approach.
