I’m not suggesting anything, just want to know what do you think.

I vote no, but I highly suspect I’m in the minority. I think defederating now just fast forwards us to the end of the enshitification process people are concerned about. Feels like we’re shooting ourselves in the foot out of a fear that we might get shot.
Defederating now would at least safeguard users from the disappointment of losing access to a larger, more normalized federated Meta community later.
I too am worried about what happens when instances start beefin and defederating.
But if a corp such as Meta owned Lemmy.world and one day decided to charge others for the right to federate, then it is also shitty.
The predatory practice of Big corps is offer service at a loss and once enough people on board, force users to pay to keep using.
Current Lemmy(ers?) have to realize this and not post or interact with monetized instances to avoid putting their content behind a paywall.
