If we defederate after the second step of EEE it still won’t save us from the third one.
Comment on Lemmy.world Should Defederate with Threads

Let’s federate with Threads. Let’s not jump to conclusions beforehand.
I want to give them the benefit of the doubt and see how they behave. We can always defederate later.

Bad take dude it’s like saying let’s not jump to conclusions after Hitler invaded Poland or retuck the Rhineland Jesus Christ. They have such a comically horrific history they’ve run out of chances years ago

I think it would make sense for certain instances to not block Threads, if people want to keep this connection. But it is always far, far easier to unblock Threads later than to federate now and then to defederate later for big instances such as Lemmy.world. I don’t think the mainstream opinion is “BLOCK THREADS FOREVER!!1!1!1!”, but that we should be cautious anout the risks connected with it. And if Meta will be nice and won’t 3E - nice, then we can federate later on. But as long as that isn’t clear, we should make sure we won’t be overtaken.

Yes! I wonder how a company working with Cambridge analytica to start a war, and influence elections worldwide, who sold children’s personal information illegaly in EU, and gleefully partcipates in the Prism surveillance program, would be? 🤔 I mean it’s not like they just gutted their staff trying to deal with misinformation for the 24 election. We simply can’t predict how they might behave!
