Sorry if this is not the right community, but I wonder if lemmy.world plans to defederate Facebook?

Also, is the huge influx of content really added value? I don’t use facebook and its offshoots because the content is irrelevant or ragebait. I certainly don’t miss it over here, and while users can individually block Facebook from their feed, as far as I know this doesn’t protect the user's data from being federated to facebook unless their instance defederates them completely.

… this doesn’t protect the user's data from being federated to facebook….

That’s my concern. I haven’t been on Facebook in years, and I don’t want to share anything with them now. I’ll likely be deleting a couple of accounts that are exposed to them.
