Thanks for the shares, very interesting, it’s much worse than I thought it turns out ahah

I’m not on masto, lemmy is enough to browse for me on a daily basis but I might check out a few things there

Now, even though it might not change much to the future of the fediverse with meta meddling, I’m definitely migrating !

Or move to a wiser instance that already defederated with them.

Now I’ll block you, because not only you’re a broken disc that doesn’t take input into account, you’re also short sighted.

Calling very justified wariness about Threads “doomsaying” is naive, at best.

If I let you keep going you’re about to tell me that Facebook and Instagram aren’t that bad, so let’s stop here.

So you are very ignorant about who’s behind Threads, how they operate and what they do, roger

YMMV ofc but I’d tend to agree that it makes sense yes.

Calling defederating Threads a “panic kneejerk reaction” is being very ignorant about who they are and what they do.

Since it’s a moot point now, it’s not a consideration anymore but ew no, that wasn’t even an option in the first place.

My original concern about “losing people” wasn’t about transferring away, but rather about leaving the fediverse entirely over the concern of having to remake an account and having to curate up to my standards all over again. Which is now a moot point since I’ve been given solutions to migrate easily.

Fallacy much ?

Because I don’t want to be federated with threads doesn’t mean I want to hand over the curating to the instance owner, there’s such a thing as nuances.

I also formulated a wish for world to defederate, but my solution when they didn’t is to leave, you don’t see me brigading for them to absolutely do it, so please do not lend to me what I didn’t say.

Thanks !

Thanks for the infos

I will see how it actually turns out, and yeah I didn’t expect an instant “everything turn to crap” moment, but good to know that there’s an option to easily migrate if need be. Although just the idea of them having any kind of access via federation really bothers me and I somewhat doubt they won’t try something to “absorb” as much people as they can into Threads, that something having many possibilities in how it could manifest.

To each their own reasons to care or not about being federated with Threads, it’s not what this post is about.

My line about how toxic it’s gonna be is my opinion and admittedly might not have its place here in the context, but I’m only a human making a post, wondering if I’m alone or if I’m missing an option for an easy migration.
