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”.

    “An enemy of freedom”. 🙄

    I mean can you be more cliche?

    Or maybe, out of the 3 Billion active users on Facebook each month, you, and many others, are focused on fucked up shit. Because, shock and horror, everyone is gripped by the propaganda of the group. Welcome to being part of a biological social species.

    Just for a moment consider the following. Facebook priorities posts that get engagement, they don’t care about morality and fairness and they won’t stop untill it is illegal to do so.

    I don’t absolve them of their responsibility, but you attributed malicious intent when stupidity and profit is only needed.

      I never implied there’s an evil master plan behind it.

      I implied that when greed prevails, any other consideration, freedom included, get bulldozed. And at that point you can safely assume they are enemy of freedom - they don’t have to promote authoritarianism, it’s enough for them to benefit from a system that strips us from our freedoms, and happily keep operating.

        No, you literally said that Facebook is evil, because you said, with grammatically corrections “Facebook is against freedom”. And don’t try to argue that this is a difference or semantic.

        Facebook doesn’t give a shit about your ideology, it only wants likes because that improves its influence. Be that capitalism’s influence or socialists influence.

          Nope, I said Facebook is an enemy of freedom. And that doesn’t mean their primary goal is to strip it away, it means the way they operate goes against freedom and they don’t mind it.

          If tomorrow aliens will militarily invade in search for resources, and will entirely disregard any human pain and suffering along the way as they destroy everything and everyone, will they stop being enemies of humanity simply due to the fact they’re not here for genocide per se?
