Am I to understand that I may see THREADS posts in the main feed here soon??? Oh god.... 🤢🤢🤢🤮
Can't they just leave us the fuck alone???
Gate keeping time, this is one of few situations where gate keeping is good
I‘m pretty sure Lemmy lets you block instances just like Mastodon. In that case, if your instance decides to federate with them, you can just block that instance.
They’ve found a way to push disguised ads, haven’t they?
Yups. Lemmy.world is the biggest instance that hasn't pre-emptively defederated from Threads. That's problematic, because it's also the biggest content provider for Lemmy. Ruud & Co are really dropping the ball here.
God forbid our communication protocol of choice gets widely adapted before global communist revolution.
If the rest of the instances let them, then yes, but if none of the instances do, then no.
So anyone with a meta account could post ads that float through to here?
Anyone can create a Lemmy account and post ads already.
But i don't see corporate accounts here posting ads like they do on Facebook, etc.
My home instance is taking a wait and see approach. If we get a bunch of ads or hate speech then they're out.
Meta needs to be cancelled from existence.
I think Cottle means all the engineers at Meta have good intentions and I believe him. Its not the engineers whom I doubt its the managers, MBAs and CEOs I don't trust.
That reminded me to finally delete my Lemmy.world account 😅
What's the issue with lemmy.world? Serious question
A little while ago a bunch of instances all decided not to federate with threads, lemmy.world said they would, a bunch of people got upset.
It's federated with Threads. I dont wanna be on an instance federated with Threads. Don't know why I got downvoted but whatevss
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
