i honestly don’t get the hate. i love the fact that i wont need two apps anymore to see the more mainstream people i used to follow on twitter. tje worst part about twitter going under is the fragmentation.
I understand you, but I specifically went to lemmy to not have any of that bullshit from Musk or Zuck or Spez. Facebook is a toxic dumpster fire(on purpose because money) Twitter is a toxic dumpster fire (because Musk is an asshole). Reddit is basically the same but the ceo is still an asshole. And I am sure that after a few years threads will follow this trend soon.
true but you wouldn’t be interacting with it unless you follow specific users or go into the global timeline
idk there are a handful of Reddit communities I miss, I would love to be able to follow them here, ad free, without a Reddit account.
who the dick would want to see Threads posts
Me. Are there any small instances that won’t defed?
get the block
…OK then? I don’t see any incentive to block me because I don’t think EEE can happen?
Lots of illustrators and writers have Threads and Instagram because it’s where the money is. They rely on that kind of exposure to sell and show their work. Following from Mastodon without a Threads account would be awesome.
Not to mention that many Mastodon users are ridiculously “purists” saying that no ad or sell should be on the network, ever, and are actively hostile to the small guys trying to make a living here. I agreed that big corps can fuck off because they overdo ads, but the small guy selling his weird contraptions or custom phone cases should see Mastodon as an alternative. But the truth is that they won’t.
There are lots of people on there I would like to follow, but they wont be joining the fediverse and I don’t want to make a Threads account myself either.
What does “Limited” and “Fedipact” mean on that list exactly?
Limited means the instance has done something not quite to the level of total defederation, but still limits the presence of Threads users. For example, making it so you can only see a Threads user if you actively search for and follow them, removing all Threads content from the global feed by default, preventing Threads users from following your users, etc.
“Fedipact” means that the admin of that instance has signed on to the informal agreement of the same name between instances that pledged to defederate from Threads preemptively.
