It most certainly is.

Why on earth would you want to associate with a company that just handed over private data to authorities to have a woman arrested for exercising her reproductive rights?

Remove your head from your asshole.

Suck it - there’s no need for any more detail.

Meta is a bastard organization willing to share your data with authorities.

If that’s not enough reason to part ways, you’re not paying attention.

100% agree.

The admin who wrote this post should have their admin powers removed. If that were even possible.

They clearly do not have Lemmy’s best interests in mind.

The “guy standing in the driveway” just outed a woman to authorities for trying to get an abortion.

We already know he is a bad actor.

“Wait and see” is bullshit.

Facebook/Meta is THE largest social network and one of the oldest active ones.

We’ve seen it all.

There’s no reason to wait.

Defederate.

I’m deleting my .world accounts now and moving to .ml.

There’s no valid reason for any instance to consider federating with Meta.

I think I’m just going to wipe my account and ditch altogether.

There is absolutely no valid reason Lemmy should have any association with Meta, no matter how vague or distant.

I’m out.

@lwadmin@lemmy.world

If Lemmy.world federates with Meta/Threads, I will delete my accounts and ditch Lemmy altogether.

It’s shameful that this is even up for discussion.

What an embarrassment.

If there’s a way to switch my existing username to another instance, I may try that.

However, the fact that any of this is even being considered makes me want to ditch aggregation platforms altogether and just pick up a new hobby.

How do I switch any existing username? Is that possible?

It shouldn’t even be a consideration.

We know exactly what Facebook/Meta/Threads is all about.

They’re a well-established company and there is absolutely no reason to ruin Lemmy by associating with them.

Disgusting company.

It’s absurd this is even a topic of discussion on Lemmy.

I’ll ditch Lemmy entirely.

Threads/Meta/Zuckerbag are cancer.

And I say this as someone who has lost loved ones to cancer.

No, sorry.

We know exactly what Zuckerbag is all about.

Not a chance.

I’ll hop right the fuck off Lemmy in a heartbeat.

If Lemmy hitches its wagon to Threads, I am fucking OUT.

Blow me.

Threads is garbage.

I grew up in a completely non-walkable part of this country and then moved just outside of NYC and it’s been life-changing. I walk almost everywhere.

Driving is garbage.

Thank you for giving us something to dream about for the future. This country neeeeeeds to advance.

See, I don’t mind graffiti in my lower class neighborhood but it’s gotta be good graffiti.

Don’t just write your dumb tag in one single color and run off - no.

Pick a nice color palette. Consider some complementary colors. Maybe some shading. A unique font. Anything.

My rent is gonna go up regardless. At least give me something to appreciate. Sheesh.

Impeccable username.

The people who negotiate your medical claims make more money on the settlement commissions than the doctors even make from their procedures.

And there’s like 25-40 people total who handle the claims for every single health insurance company.
