Meta just announced that they are trying to integrate Threads with ActivityPub (Mastodon, Lemmy, etc.). We need to defederate them if we want to avoid them pushing their crap into fediverse.

If you're a server admin, please defederate Meta's domain "threads.net"

If you don't run your own server, please ask your server admin to defederate "threads.net".

Let the user decide. If lemmy/mastodon user wants to block threads, let them. Defederating entirely is idiotic gatekeeping.

i would agree normally, except when its a monolithic company trying to federate

When all the infrastructure is gone, let the user decide between starving and eating shit.

That's a terrible analogy. That's like saying that Google running an email service ruined your email and the only solution is for everyone to block all emails from accounts hosted by Google.

Threads federation doesn't change anything about the rest of Lemmy or Mastodon.

The absolute worst case is that it brings a ton more users into the fold, eternal September style.

I totally agree! It's unfortunate you're being downvoted!

These are literally people who want to make these decisions for you! Fuck them.

And these are the people who talk about FREEDOM and FREEWILL. They just don't understand. 🤦
