I'm undecided.
On the one hand, Facebook/Meta are not interested in the health of the fediverse. This is clearly an "embrace, extend, extinguish" move. On the other... they're sure to have a large number of users, which in turn means a large amount of content that we'll want to view/participate in. Each of those users will in turn be an opportunity for us to encourage to migrate to the fediverse.
I am considering deleting my account and removing myself from the fediverse until I find an instance/s that block Meta and any instance that is associated with them. Because fuck Meta and fuck their demographic...
At least with Fediverse you have the option to move. See the list of instances (not all but many) with their positions on federating/defederating here: https://fedipact.veganism.social/
