Peace,

The thing is, I don't think we've seen a lot of Facebook engineers on the IETF meetings even before COVID. I'm pretty sure there was someone from Facebook doing some work around the rtg area, but I fail to recall anyone else.

Ok, you are probably right.

But just a few weeks ago, we had a "tools" survey circulating, and several of the questions related to using assorted social media platforms for IETF work.

If you can get banned for a kill -9 comment -- well, we really can't be using that platform for IETF stuff. Even for jokes, apparently.
