As you’ve probably heard, Threads (a fairly new social network from Facebook’s parent company Meta) is testing integration with the fediverse. Depending on how you look at it, it’s a great opportunity, a huge threat, or both!
Back in May and June, when Threads’ first announced their plans, there were quite a few polls on Mastodon about people’s reactions, most showing opinions split roughly equally. How do people feel today?
And once again I repeat: Defederating won’t hurt meta. They can likely already harvest all the user data they would get from federation.
So you’re senselessly taking your take against meta out on normies.
Dude, go to fucking Meta if you want to talk to fucking Meta’s ragebait monkeys. The “normies” as you put it are welcome in the fediverse as far as I’m concerned, just not fucking META. Nothing but sloth is preventing the “normies” from getting into the fediverse.
Now go fuck off and troll elsewhere.
So are they normies or are they ragebait monkeys?
Explain to me how defederating threads isn’t just impotently screaming into the void, because I’ve explained how it is and all you’ve done is have a tantrum in response. Maybe I’m wrong, but you’ve yet to even make an argument about the benefits of defederating.
In the end, this is the magic of the fediverse: we can both appeal to our admins about what we want, and then move to instances that have what we want. You tell me to move to threads, and I tell you to go to an instance that doesn’t federate with anyone.
Now fuck off and express your impotent rage somewhere else.
