Many of us do not trust Facebook and anything it is associated with or swallows up.
EDIT:
"Instagram head Adam Mosseri said "
““Soon, you’ll be able to follow and interact with people on other fediverse platforms, such as Mastodon. They can also find people on Threads using full usernames, such as @[email protected].””
“We’re committed to building support for ActivityPub, the protocol behind Mastodon, into this app. We weren’t able to finish it for launch given a number of complications that come along with a decentralized network, but it’s coming,” he said.
“If you’re wondering why this matters, here’s a reason: you may one day end up leaving Threads, or, hopefully not, end up de-platformed. If that ever happens, you should be able to take your audience with you to another server. Being open can enable that.”
Describe in any level of detail instead of literal FUD (you’re simply using vague notions), what can happen if defederation occurs after seeing what happens instead of before. What cannot be prevented by defederation after the fact. And let’s bare in mind Threads’ developer already talked about being multi-instance. We don’t even know if it will even federate with Lemmy/Kbin for that matter.
You’re drumming up fear, uncertainty, and doubt about something that may not even remotely be a problem. We don’t need to create some Lemmy version of Fox News here.
You really need to find the difference between holding uncertainty and doubt about a group that has strong evidence against them based on past behavior and the FUD propaganda technique. They are not the same and throwing them around like they are is not productive to this discussion.
You need to explain how what you’re doing is any different. You are creating fear, uncertainty, and doubt about an event that 1) may never even occur and 2) you offer no actual evidence anything bad will happen. You can’t even articulate what a bad thing might be.
