Comment on 41% of fediverse instances have blocked threads so far!!!
Croquette@sh.itjust.works 9 months agoYou are advocating for Lemmy to be exactly that, a takeover from a big corporation. This is the exact reason why people don’t want to federate with Meta.
You want to redo the same exact thing that we did 10-15 years ago, expecting a different result.

No, I am pointing out that you developed a great open system with the false idea that individuals will be in power and little to no real consideration on how to stop corporations from taking it. Lemmy doesn’t exist in a vacuum. All the problems we have in real life with corporations gaining power is true in the fediverse, but worse because there are no courts to limit their power. Make no mistake about it, if Meta is motivated enough, they will steamroll everyone else. Not that many people are going to be loyal to the platform if the content isn’t there. If the content migrated to Threads so will 95% of the user base. Defederating one-by-one is not going to stop them and will fragment and make what we have now worse. I don’t believe it’s the answer, but am happy to be proven wrong.
