Episode notes

Mastodon is an open protocol. Facebook could have already been indexing at all for their own purposes. So it's just going to be more people who might at some point in the future when they someday federate might be exposed to other social networks out there. But ultimately even all that said I think this is actually still a benefit for quote the Fediverse and for like the Mastodon style networks and Mastodon itself.
