As you've probably heard, Threads (a fairly new social network from Facebook's parent company Meta) is testing integration with the fediverse. Depending on how you look at it, it's a great opportunity, a huge threat, or both!
Back in May and June, when Threads' first announced their plans, there were quite a few polls on Mastodon about people's reactions, most showing opinions split roughly equally. How do people feel today?
I mostly just hate Spez and Elon, so Threads would be cool joining the Fediverse imo. Facebook should stay off tho, there's nothing worthwhile there
Threads is by Facebook/Instagram though?
Yeah, but they're separate, so I think they could federate Threads without federating Facebook
is by same people
I know. That doesn't mean they'd both have to federate if one did. I don't hate Zuckerberg like I hate Musk and Spez so I'm fine if Threads federates
zuck enabled genocide
is worse
I think the problem here is that Zuck the Fuck enabled genocide of brown-skinned people so white-skinned people half a world away don't give a shit. But ELON BROKE TWITTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
And Twitter was important to the white folk half a world away, so naturally Elon is Teh Devvil and Zuck the Fuck is just a nerd.
