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”.

      If this kill the fediverse I might just dip from all social media. Had enough.

        Same, I’m right on the edge of giving up on it too. Anything meta and Twitter touch just turns to shit.

      I donate a nice chunk of cash to lemmyworld servers and devs. Meta is going to reduce the quality of Lemmy. It is going to get overrun with bots and advertisments and genuine conversations are going to dissapear. I and probably many other donators will not want to stick around if we get overrun with bot posts and advertisements like reddit.

      Same. Facebook and anything related to it is blocked on my DNS so if threads happens then I would rather go back to reddit than stay here… Fuck this shit.

      Wouldn’t it be nice if you had the power to block instances yourself?

      That way these discussions don’t even need to be had. People can control the content they want instead of arguing with each other over what others should see.

        That sounds terrifying, how much horrible shit you gotta see before deciding to block a whole instance?

          It doesn’t have to be horrible. It can just be something you, personally, don’t want to see.

        That’s why I like Sync. Instance blocking power at my fingertips
