sometimes, it's just about the principle.

and if the principle is "keep zucc the fuck away from the fediverse", i'm all for it.

But it doesn't keep him away. Defederation means they consume all of the data from ActivityPub, you consume none of theirs. You are creating a walled garden for them that makes it harder for Threads users to leave.

Defederation means they consume all of the data from ActivityPub, you consume none of theirs.

It's not that simple.

Their instance will be sent the data only if the post originates on an instance/community that is still federated with their instance. If a new post or comment is made in a community who's instance isn't federated with their instance, it will not be sent via ActivityPub. A more detailed explanation of how that works is in this post.

It's about the principal of throwing out our own principals because we hate someone!

Throwing out your principals [sic].

Please don't speak for me.

Lol I work and finance and it was pre coffee, went into default mode I guess, thanks for the correction.

And good on you for your principle being the illusion of "fuck zucc." truly a noble pursuit.
