I smell a rat!

(And it's not me this time, I showered today!)

And of course .world is doing exactly what I expected it to do: it's going along with Threads integration.

And judging from how it's been set up and run to function almost exactly like old Reddit, with corporate censoring, PR-style talk from admins, blatant refusal to address and fix serious problems, and monopolizing Lemmy by herding everyone else under its umbrella instead of letting people migrate to niche servers which was the intent of the fediverse in the first place, it stands to reason the .world admins are either working directly for Threads or being paid off by Meta to do this.

It's time for everyone to just leave and go back to making their own websites again.

Yesss omg

Most of the people preemptively defederating from Threads don't understand how ActivityPub works.

I hope the instances I'm on stay federated. It'll be nice having communications with people I'm interested in again, without having to use Meta's trackers to do so.

adam posted more details tonight :) can't wait honestly. i love how pumped adam is about activitypub and interoperability!

I was considering starting a mastadon account but I guess I'll pass. Gonna be interesting to see how this changes the fediverse.

edit: oh double fuck you mastadon users. just go join threads already.
