just wait until reality kicks in and you realize we can't grow massive amounts of food without a predictable climate, and that we only have a finite amount of oil anyways
I wouldn't recommend it either, because it doesn't exist yet. But its extremely disingenuous to make claims about how it will work when/if it begins federating in the future and declare it EEE.
There isn't a standard because the protocol/platform doesn't exist yet. "Anyone who wants to connect will be entirely beholden to get the latest published version from Bluesky" is just the definition of a standard. Every standard is maintained by someone. And its also not EEE to make an entirely new system. They are neither embracing nor extending activitypub. They are trying something of their own.
I'm with you. preemptively defederating feels like shooting ourselves in the foot. It would be great to be able to access content from larger communities on our own terms. If meta starts trying to dictate the rules, sure but as it stands now they don't control activitypub. I think I'm also in the minority that wants to see the fediverse grow into a proper alternative to traditional social media, though.
