2. Meta/Facebook is trying to join the Fediverse. We need to defederate them.
3. If you're a server admin, please defederate Meta's domain "threads.net" (here's how on Mastodon https://fedi.tips/how-to-defederate-fediblock-a-server-on-mastodon/)
4. If you don't run your own server, please ask your server admin to defederate "threads.net". Your admin is listed on your server website's About page.
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”.
I’m not a fan of grass, horrible invasive monoculture that harms the native insect populations. I’ll blow some dandelions for you though if that helps you feel safer about my social media preferences.
So like, you realize if you don’t want to use threads you don’t have to, right? Just because other people like it doesn’t mean you have to turn into a cranky curmudgeon.
Why turn to insults just because we have different views on things?
Thanks for your concern about me!
Don’t worry, I do use threads and enjoy it quite a bit!
It’s easily the friendliest social media I’ve ever used, and I’ve never even had a Facebook account!
It’s sweet you think lil ole us using the internet actually affects things on the grand scheme of billions of users, though! Bless your heart!
Then go back to Threads and stop bothering everyone else.
I am on Threads my guy, this is the internet you can be in multiple places at once.
Also, how am I bothering everyone else?
Are y’all not ganging up on me and my opinion? Does it bother you guys to be bullies to someone for sharing a dissenting voice to yours?
I’m sorry if having a choice bothers you, I’m sorry if hearing something opposite of what you want bothers you.
Nobody is asking you to be a jerk to people who differ in what they would like.
Then get off of Threads, go outside and go touch some grass.
I’m not a fan of grass, horrible invasive monoculture that harms the native insect populations. I’ll blow some dandelions for you though if that helps you feel safer about my social media preferences.
Yeah, we can tell. You NEED the grass. And oxygen. And water. And soap.
Okay.
So like, you realize if you don’t want to use threads you don’t have to, right? Just because other people like it doesn’t mean you have to turn into a cranky curmudgeon.
