Star wars meme: Mon Mothma (Mastodon) stands before 5 other men/admirals (Writefreely, Lemmy, Peertube, Pixelfed, Friendica). She says: "The emperor has made a critical error and the time for our attack has come."

Inb4 Google pulls an Elon and starts requiring sign-ins, which will kill Invidious and Piped, along with a lot of their userbase.
I don't think Google is that stupid. A very significant portion of users never log in, more than Twitter. They'd lose so much ad revenue.
Yeah. I could definitely see them implementing some sort of IP-based rate limiting, though.
