Meta threads will open federation to the fediverse soon, and while this is mainly to mastodon it will still affect lemmy. They are acting like they won't be evil, but let's be real this is Facebook when have they ever done that.

This article which has been trending lately explains some of the issues. https://ploum.net/2023-06-23-how-to-kill-decentralised-networks.html

This comment here is a simple analogy if you can't be bothered reading the article. https://lemmy.ca/comment/5702922

There is nothing to gain from interaction with Meta/Threads

Get over yourself.

There are tons of well-meaning people on threads who’ve never heard of mastodon, lemmy, or the fediverse.

And ? Thats still not a reason to federate. I joined the Fediverse years ago to get away from the "well meaning people" dragging us into the pile of shit because they don't grok that meta/twitter is cancer.

If they're that disinterested in why Meta/Bluesky is "cancer" then I'm not really interested in what they have to say on most subjects. Its not elitism, its the same reaosn I am not interested in what members of the Liberal Party have to say on a sinject, sure their is some sanity some times but I don't want to have to wade through waist deep ship to find it.

Being "well meaning" and using "a toxic billionare run platform" are incompatable. You can be one ...or the other, you can't be both.

Ignorance isnt an excuse. Let then stay with their toxicity is all that's being asked.

Why would anyone join Lemmy/Mastodon if they could join Threads instead for the same content? Normal people don't care that your shit is FLOSS or decentralised, they just want convenience.
