TL;DR: The common view on Meta’s Threads is that it will be either all good or all bad, leading to oversimplified and at the end contra productive propositions like the Fedipact. But in reality, it’s behaviour will most likely change dynamically over time, and therefore, to prevent us getting in a position, in which Threads can actually perform EEE on us, we need to adapt a dynamic strategy as well.

Before, in the olden times, the internet was just a bunch of random websites and forums and IRC AND USEnet.

Now it’s, “Where SHOULD I GO to be seen others and be validated?!?!”

I sound old. And I am. But,
