Good that threads.net is in top 50 but I would've liked to see it higher. Right now it is at 39th place.

Edit: Also what is the source for the picture?

Thank you.

For me a lot of the interesting part isn't which instances are being defederated, but why. Giving a quick glance, most defed reasons seem to be fairly sensible, with only a few being assumptive or outright idiotic (like blanket top domain defederation).

[–] jqubed@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I like that clicking on the instance shows the reason given (if any) for each defederation.

My favorite:

abusive admin - threatened to send Hillary Clinton feet pics. Also, pedo

What's up with the downvotes?

[–] tedu@azorius.net 27 points 5 months ago (4 children)

It's so weird.

Due to the fact that Facebook has chosen to involve software that will allow the theft of my personal information, I do declare the following: on this day, 30th November 2014, in response to the new Facebook guidelines and under articles L.111, 112 and 113 of the code of intellectual property, I declare that my rights are attached to all my personal data, drawings, paintings, photos, texts etc... published on my profile since the day I opened my account. For commercial use of the foregoing my written consent is required at all times. Those reading this text can copy it and paste it on their Facebook wall. This will allow them to place themselves under the protection of copyright. By this release, I tell Facebook that it is strictly forbidden to disclose, copy, distribute, broadcast, or to take any other action against me on the basis of this profile and/or its contents. The actions mentioned above apply equally to employees, students, agents and/or other staff under the direction of Facebook. The contents of my profile include private information. The violation of my privacy is punished by the law (UCC 1 1-308 - 308 1 -103 and the Rome Statute). Facebook is now an open capital entity. All members are invited to post a notice of this kind, or if you prefer, you can copy and paste this version. If you have not published this statement at least once, you will tacitly allow the use of elements such as your photos as well as the information contained in your profile update. Do not share. Just copy on paste on your wall.

Goofy ah copypasta. Copyright applies automatically, you don't need to publish a statement proclaiming it. Facebook is already forbidden from using your work commercially without your consent. They'll do it anyway though because Zuck knows he can get away with it

[–] laughterlaughter@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

You missed the point. The commenter is explaining why the parent commenter was heavily downvoted (hint: they're doing something similar.)

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago

Lmao it was funny seeing that making the rounds

[–] Randomgal@lemmy.ca 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)
[–] laughterlaughter@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

You're missing the commenter's observation through that facebook joke.

[–] laughterlaughter@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago

People who downvote you don't get it. That was funny!

[–] laughterlaughter@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The anti-commercial useless link.

[–] ninpnin@sopuli.xyz 3 points 5 months ago

A bit of an overreaction though?

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

AI simps. There's more and more of them on the fediverse, for some reason. They're getting a bit less active on Mastodon, as Elongated Muskrat is also being an AI fan.

[–] tobogganablaze@lemmus.org 17 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I think AI is annoying AF and Elon Musk can fuck right off.

But this "license disclaimer" has the energy of mom posting one of these "I herby forbid facebook to use my images and personal data" disclaimer to their facebook profile.

And adding this idocy to literally every lemmy comment just makes you look like a right twat.

[–] barsquid@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I don't think the license will do anything legally, but I hope the inclusion of the license poisons some data for LLM training. Unfortunately, it is all really uniform across all the people doing it and all their comments, so it will be easy to strip out.

[–] ninpnin@sopuli.xyz 1 points 5 months ago

Any individual action can be combatted easily. A million different signatures and headers is a whole different .

Mind you, LLM training data is polluted with anything and everything, including other languages. Recently, the best performance has been reached using higher quality data.

[–] ninpnin@sopuli.xyz 1 points 5 months ago

Well, it does render the comment useless in terms of training an LLM..

[–] Danterious@lemmy.dbzer0.com -5 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (3 children)

No clue.

My theories:

  1. A lot of people like threads.net
  2. They don't like I asked for a source
  3. Or they don't like the copyleft license

Because that's literally all the information my comment gives.

[–] Hugh_Jeggs@lemm.ee 24 points 5 months ago

My theory -

Your comments clutter up threads with the stupid links posted every single comment at the bottom.

If everyone did this, comment threads would be unreadable.

Get rid of them.

[–] laughterlaughter@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

The copyleft license link does nothing to prevent what you're trying to prevent.

[–] Yearly1845@reddthat.com 4 points 5 months ago

HELLO MY DEAR FACEBOOK FRIENDS! I RECENTLY LEARNED THAT FACEBOOK RECENTLY CHANGED THEIR TERMS AND AGREEMENTS RECENTLY. NOW YOU MUST COPY AND PASTE THIS TEXT TO THE END OF ALL OF YOUR COMMENTS OR JARK SUCKERBURG WILL EAT YOUR BALLS.

THE TEXT IS THIS:

I DO NOT WANT JARK SUCKERBURG TO EAT MY BALLS.

MAKE SURE YOU DO THIS OR JARK WILL EAT YOUR BALLS!!!!!!! 1

I DO NOT WANT JARK SUCKERBURG TO EAT MY BALLS.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 3 points 5 months ago

It's the silly license thing

[–] PM_Your_Nudes_Please@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Higher than the blatant pedo instances? Those are too far down on the list, tbh.
