Could we get official word on what Kbin's stance is towards federating with Meta? (kbin.social)

I would like to know if I can feel safe here, or if I should pack it up and start looking elsewhere sooner rather than later.

If the kbin staff have already made there intentions clear, please let me know.

Thanks for the detail! The only one of those I notice when I use it is mySQL. The contrarian in me is saying that several of of those would probably be even better without facebook's sticky fingers in them, but that's unfair of me as it's a counterfactual and there's no way of knowing without a deep dive into the history of development.

I get tired of extension breaking other things, but a lot of that is the nature of tech evolving. I guess this is what bothers me the most about EEE - for many of us it won't be clear what is happening and how much of it is just attrition. I remember getting annoyed by Firefox for not working with gmail and "discovering" gmail still worked with Chrome. I had no idea that bug was a feature.
