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".

It just sucks how rapidly it's becoming. Can't even spend a year in bliss before the shitheels arrive.

Yeah, but the reason we need federation in the first place is because of the relentless onslaught of monopoly.

I think this is a good prpblem to have. The fediverse gets to test itself against the largest established social media network, and honestly I don't see a way for them to win. You can ses it in these replies - they are scared of this boycott. Even more exciting now that I think of if - this isn't a consumer boycott like we're used to. This is a boycott by the producers. The instances create the network, so their voices are much more important.

It is exciting. I've been impressed by the response to this. Reading between the astroturfing, there's a community with a sense of purpose here.

Thanks to all who are here genuinely!
