If that was the case, then they'd go for Bluesky which will inevitably grow significantly bigger.

Could be. Perhaps the developers of Bluesky realized the dangers of letting them in and showed them the door early. Perhaps it's still to small to take seriously. Who knows.

What we do know though is that the Fediverse grew over leaps and bounds recently and is thus very much on their radar. That's a bad place to be.

Also I don't know if Bluesky protocol is public anywhere? It's possible it could bridge with ActivityPub as well.

That was not my point. I never focused on the "what it is right now" because that can easily change or be changed, but rather on "what could potentially happen".

These actions we need to prevent, or mitigate. Joining them or letting them join us does not do any of that. We're letting them dictate the playbook right now.
