The fediverse awaits them with open arms. They just need use closed source, censorship prone social media 🤷

Funnily enough the largest lemmy instance don't allow you to use their platform with VPN enabled, unless they've changed policy in last 6 months
There’s also the other part of this concerning VPNs. While many are using VPNs purely to access garbage social media, using (good) VPNs can help protect your privacy. So I would argue that the fediverse should embrace and support VPNs. It’s always possible that a data center where an instance is hosted gets raided and IP addresses taken and used against users.
