While I agreed those who do not want federation with Threads should leave (me included), lemmy.world has not bent any knee. The admin is taking a wait and see approach, and willing to block if it turns out bad

Awesome. I’ll try it out. Thanks so much

Thanks so much for the detailed response.

If you happen to use Tasks on mobile, did the plugin slow Obsidian down at all? I’ve been using Obsidian plugin-free

How is it at organising your Tasks? I feel it would not be best at it, but also like the ideas of linking tasks in my notes

They seems to really embrace open social media. I have a couple of questions to see what their true intension is. It is assumed that they would federate with fediverse soon (plenty of reports of that already)

  1. Would they support 3rd party apps to browse their contents without ads/tracking? I do not mind paying if true
  2. If I do not agree with how they moderate/treat users, can I move somewhere else (aka another Threads instance)? Can another Threads instance even be set up independently or they are the only player
  3. Would they contribute their improvements on Threads to ActivityPub (after thorough community review of course)?
  4. What contributions have they made so far to fediverse?

All I want to see is if they should be considered a member of the fediverse and play by the rules that all other members follow. the answer would make the decision around federation/defederation easy

Edit:typo and added the last paragraph

There are under the hood data that is not displayed on the site which they can scrap. FB would be broke if they only rely on the FB posts alone without all the tracking everywhere. Even your movement on the screen or where you pause on the page are tracked.

So no they dont get all the data unless we federate them.

Lovely resource to help people decide for themselves

At least governments/any essential services around the world should

 

First of all, a big thank you to @[email protected] and team for building such a good place for us to hang out. You guys rock!

I am interested to see your opinion on the recently launched Threads from meta, specially around possible federation/defederation in the future

Some instance owners are open to federation, some takes wait and see approach, while some will block them outright as seen on https://fedipact.online/

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Its your choice as instance owner to do that

Visit https://fedipact.online/ to see a list of instance owners who will defederate their instance from Threads

Heads up: its a long list

Thats the nice thing about fediverse. People with different opinions can co-exist and they have freedom to choose what they want

Big enough is nice but I’d rather have a small community without anything to do with the big tech.

I doubt people joining small instances would miss any content from FB/Instagram/Threads/Twitter

The content on reddit is huge but I cut the tie and happier with Lemmy.

There are certain apps I must use, for example banking or Notion. I can already block them from using location/contacts/photos…

I just wanted to see if other like browsing history/purchase history can be blocked

Hopefully something similar will be developed for lemmy
