The people who care about decentralization and like Meta/Facebook are two separate circles, but its interesting that they're supposedly building on ActivityPub.

Like how they built their chat on XMPP and then rugpulled it away?
Facebook only had a XMPP gateway for their own chat service to let you use it with an XMPP client. You could never communicate with other servers from Facebook or vice-versa. It was Google who actually bait-and-switched with federated XMPP.
Gearing up for a classic EEE move, probably.
