Comment on [Duscussion] Post licening to kneecap threads putting ads next to our content.
originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 10 months agoim not sure why we have to treat threads differently than every other instance that is also using the content for whatever.
people are literally just so upset that 'meta' is even involved, they want to block them at all costs out of nothing more than spite. that their content '0h noooes my memes are next to ads!' is federated and shown on remote sites, and that site happens to be threads, freaks them the fuck out.
but there isnt any real reason to be doin all this. its pure corporate hatred. i just wish they would admit that instead of pretending they have an actual, technical reason.
The problem is that they are thousands times bigger than us. All our voices will be drowned out, in what we all know, is an ad-driven post contest.
We can whine and cry but their predatory algorithms will just chew on our content and spit it back in, filled with ads, misinformation et al.
That’s why we dont want to federate with threads/facebook.
