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.

I read the whole thing the first time it was presented to me.

No one is talking about "defeat EEE" - it's about protecting yourself against attempts to use the EEE strategy.

Yeah and it spouts vague platitudes while avoiding specifics. Maybe it’s the sysadmin in me but that isn’t worth shit.

How does defederating “protect against attempts to use the EEE strategy”?

Maybe I could see a valid point if you could instantly have all instances defederate now and forever but you can’t.

Since you refuse to acknowledge that the explanation is right there in the text, I'll have to assume you have ill intent.

That’s what I thought.

Let the people who come after, read this thread and see the lack of specifics, again.
