I agree caution is warranted, absolutely. I agree with Gruber that the "fuck off irrespective or what your plans are" is perhaps not the best way to proceed.

The Fediverse and Facebook's business model are incompatible, and that's the main issue here. And in terms of users, I'm sure there are a lot of kbin and Lemmy users who would have an issue with their instances federating with Facebook.
