Polls on reactions to Threads
(lemmy.world)
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?
I hope they federate
why do you hope that?
I hate Reddit and Twitter both so I want the Fediverse to take off
Facebook/Threads will not be a good federation partner, same cesspool as Twitter.
I mostly just hate Spez and Elon, so Threads would be cool joining the Fediverse imo. Facebook should stay off tho, there's nothing worthwhile there
Threads is by Facebook/Instagram though?
Yeah, but they're separate, so I think they could federate Threads without federating Facebook
is by same people
I know. That doesn't mean they'd both have to federate if one did. I don't hate Zuckerberg like I hate Musk and Spez so I'm fine if Threads federates
zuck enabled genocide
is worse
I think the problem here is that Zuck the Fuck enabled genocide of brown-skinned people so white-skinned people half a world away don't give a shit. But ELON BROKE TWITTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘π‘
And Twitter was important to the white folk half a world away, so naturally Elon is Teh Devvil and Zuck the Fuck is just a nerd.
