The hard part of making a social network is the userbase accumulation. Apollo already has the userbase, if they switch all the api calls over to their own backend it truly wouldn’t be that hard. Especially considering the money involved. The only sticking point is in all the people who want things to be “federated” for whatever (generally bogus) reason. Better yet: cloudflare/etc’s preexisting backend.
