I'm not sure this tracks. "having a big player like Walmart in town means everyone will likely benefit" sounds plausible, but in practice they suck all the oxygen out of the room, play dirty, and make it difficult for small operators to "compete" once they gain the advantage. The fediverse is honestly not prepared for this scenario, but I do hope that the communities will rally and give Meta a run for their money. I don't have any ill will against them, but its boring to see the same few entities doing everything. Despite its flaws, portions of the fediverse are vibrant and I really want to see them trive.
