Meta just announced that they are trying to integrate Threads with ActivityPub (Mastodon, Lemmy, etc.). We need to defederate them if we want to avoid them pushing their crap into fediverse.

If you're a server admin, please defederate Meta's domain "threads.net"

If you don't run your own server, please ask your server admin to defederate "threads.net".

I don't think that's what they're saying.

They're saying that some users and admins might choose to wait and see

"Yes, Jeffrey has, in the past, killed and eaten gay men. But we should wait and see. It's impolite not to invite him to the party!"

I don't want to use their platform, but I get why some people might choose to stay federated so that there is incentive to pull people to mastodon and educate people about the issues

There's enough nuance there that I'm not dead set on either side, and I think we still have the chance to defederate later if there's an increase in spam and harmful content / disinformation.

"Jeffrey doesn't always eat people. Just sometimes. We should totally go clubbing with him and spurn him later if he eats one of us."
