I will not ask my fellow lemmy community members to blindly trust me on this
But you are, so … 🤷♂️
Are you basing your claim solely on the email that kev@fosstodon.org shared, which mentioned no other mastodon server admins, or is there other evidence that you are aware of?
You don’t seem to be aware of the meaning of that link. If people got approached to sign a contract to not be legally allowed to talk about the contract or meeting, then its very strong evidence that lemmy.world admins have signed the agreement.
OPs claims are logical. I don’t care about the anecdote of someone dobbing someone in, just the hard logic that NDA signers can’t talk about it legally.
Apparently the admins at Universodon had no problem putting this drama to rest weeks ago:
The nda wasn’t because of some absurd agreement but just the fact they’re launching a new project and we’re getting access to engineers and product team to discuss what the relationship could be. And they went well.

There was no deal signing or any bullshit like that - that’s all fake news.
The nda is because none of this stuff is released and it’s up to meta to share details or admins to join the ongoing calls to learn in advance of launch what is going on.
All that email shows evidence of is that a representative of Meta approached the server admin of fosstodon.org and proposed a sit-down. That’s literally all it is.
There is no mention of 1) who else was invited, or 2) who else attended, 3) that an NDA would need to be signed, and (perhaps most importantly) 4) that the proposed discussion even happened in the first place.

There’s pretty strong speculation, and it’s not unreasonable, but there’s zero evidence of anything.

I don’t know why this blew up like it did.
It’s admins doing due diligence ahead of a major product launch and getting access to engineers on the teams making it happen. https://universeodon.com/@supernovae/110600310078347561

Talk about jumping to conclusions.
