Lemmy.world Should Defederate with Threads (lemmy.world)

I think it's pretty safe to say that the majority of us are here to avoid another corporate takeover of our preferred platforms. It would seem to me to be a tad irresponsible to allow Facebook into our space with open arms, allowing them to hoover up our data. I would love to keep using Lemmy.world, but will happily change instances if need be, and I feel many share that sentiment.

Yeah the mutuality argument is a strong one IMO.

It would be great if the fediverse did have the leverage to influence meta to accept other content.

At the same time, I wonder if there could ever be an implementation that detects asymmetrical & unfair practices across instances to give them consequences in real time.
