That is so naive thinking I’m my opinion. They probably gonna use that in the long run to connect only their apps (like you can comment on Facebook from IG). Why would they want people outside of their ecosystems to connect with them? I deleted all their apps and I’m gonna do it with every Fediverse app that federate with them. I know that data in Fediverse is public but I wanted to join community-driven ecosystem outside of Meta.

The apps for the fediverse aren't responsible for federating with Meta, the instances (servers) are.

If my instance (lemmy.world) federates with Meta, I need only to switch servers (say, to lemmy.ml or lemm.ee), not stop using the current app I use (mostly Jerboa, but also Thunder and LiftOff).
