  Am I to understand that I may see THREADS posts in the main feed here soon??? Oh god… 🤢🤢🤢🤮

  Can’t they just leave us the fuck alone???

    Gate keeping time, I think this is one of few situations where gate keeping is good

    I‘m pretty sure Lemmy lets you block instances just like Mastodon. In that case, if your instance decides to federate with them, you can just block that instance.

      I’ll move to an instance that aligns with my views instead…who’s to say that there won’t be some weird as backdoor deals with the instance owner and fuckerburg. Money makes people do bad bad things.

    They’ve found a way to push disguised ads, haven’t they?

    God forbid our communication protocol of choice gets widely adapted before global communist revolution.

    Yups. Lemmy.world is the biggest instance that hasn’t pre-emptively defederated from Threads. That’s problematic, because it’s also the biggest content provider for Lemmy. Ruud & Co are really dropping the ball here.

    If the rest of the instances let them, then yes, but if none of the instances do, then no.

  So anyone with a meta account could post ads that float through to here?

    As long as meta isn’t instantly defederated, and as such I guess I should switch to an instance that will defederate simply to keep ads away.

    Anyone can create a Lemmy account and post ads already.

    My home instance is taking a wait and see approach. If we get a bunch of ads or hate speech then they’re out.

  Meta needs to be cancelled from existence.

  I think Cottle means all the engineers at Meta have good intentions and I believe him. Its not the engineers whom I doubt its the managers, MBAs and CEOs I don’t trust.

  That reminded me to finally delete my Lemmy.world account 😅

    What’s the issue with lemmy.world? Serious question

      A little while ago a bunch of instances all decided not to federate with threads, lemmy.world said they would, a bunch of people got upset.
