Lemmy.world’s position on Meta’s newly launched Threads
First of all, a big thank you to @ruud@lemmy.world and team for building such a good place for us to hang out. You guys rock!
I am interested to see your opinion on the recently launched Threads from meta, specially around possible federation/defederation in the future
Some instance owners are open to federation, some takes wait and see approach, while some will block them outright as seen on https://fedipact.online/
You're viewing a single thread.
This was posted on mastodon.world, also ran by Ruud mwadmin@mastodon.world - Update regarding Meta/Threads:
We hear that the Threads app is coming July 6th. It will at first not support ActivityPub, so it can't talk to Mastodon yet. That will be added later.
We're very much in agreement with @tchambers , see https://www.timothychambers.net/2023/07/03/instagram-threads-and.html As he said: ““Watching Like A hawk, with our fingers on the block button.” We will NOT be pre-emptively taking a “Fediblock as a Frist Strike” position.”

I see. Hope they're ready to press that block button on the very first sign of bullshittery though.
