  • I’m all for individual users blocking Threads if they’d like to, but I think it’s a terrible idea for instance admins to make that decision for all of their users.

    Personally, I don’t see why this is so controversial. I view it as a way to follow the celebs and organizations that would rather use threads, but from the comfort of Mastodon that is outside of Meta’s ecosystem.

    ActivityPub and the Fediverse is designed to for natural selection to take place. So let it. The users that want to be part of the Fediverse are already here and won’t don’t leave based on what Meta does with Threads. Threads utilizing ActivityPub in the future justifies the means of the Fediverse more than anything else IMO. I despise Meta as much as the next person, but this is not the end of the Fediverse as we know it.






  • The app is barely a month old and it’s extremely barebones right now. I’m sure the devs have plenty of features in mind, but it’s important to focus on getting what features are already present to work without crashing the app.

    Hopefully there will be a roadmap in the near future.



  • I’ve already made my plans to settle in the Fediverse/Lemmy. Yes, it’s Reddit with extra steps, but the smaller communities, more tailored instances, and to be a part of something in its infancy compared to where Reddit is now, is really appealing to me.

    Plus, this won’t be the last time time Reddit screws with it’s users. There will be more influxes of users in the future to look forward to.
