MODERATORS
 

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".

So... admins aren't free to choose? Why are you trying to take away admins freedom of choice? Sounds kind of authoritarian to me.

If you're self-hosting a personal instance, do whatever you want.

But if you're hosting a community for other people, you should consider what they want. That's the responsibility of a community leader.

That's the beauty of the fediverse, if the instance you're on isn't doing what you want, you can move to another one. Or create your own.

I'd say that's a pretty clear indicator of the popularity of decisions. Saying "No, you can't do that, cause I don't want that" is putting your desires above the desires of others.

This is why I love federated communities; the freedom of choice is great to have.
