    I guess people don’t want the Fediverse to gain any popularity. If people consider BBC to be quintessentially evil, what news outlet would even be considered welcome?

      Maybe some people actually don’t want the fedi to become popular because they’re into gatekeeping and despite saying ‘it’s the future’ etc, actually just want it to stay small and underground?

      And yeah, the BBC having a 6 month R&D experiment isn’t exactly the same as a Fox News takeover (not that that would even be possible)
