While I agreed those who do not want federation with Threads should leave (me included), lemmy.world has not bent any knee. The admin is taking a wait and see approach, and willing to block if it turns out bad
Awesome. I’ll try it out. Thanks so much
Thanks so much for the detailed response.
If you happen to use Tasks on mobile, did the plugin slow Obsidian down at all? I’ve been using Obsidian plugin-free
If settings does not work for you, try an app like Memmy: https://apps.apple.com/au/app/memmy-for-lemmy/id6450204299
How is it at organising your Tasks? I feel it would not be best at it, but also like the ideas of linking tasks in my notes
Questions on the openness of Meta’s Threads
They seems to really embrace open social media. I have a couple of questions to see what their true intension is. It is assumed that they would federate with fediverse soon (plenty of reports of that already)
- Would they support 3rd party apps to browse their contents without ads/tracking? I do not mind paying if true
- If I do not agree with how they moderate/treat users, can I move somewhere else (aka another Threads instance)? Can another Threads instance even be set up independently or they are the only player
- Would they contribute their improvements on Threads to ActivityPub (after thorough community review of course)?
- What contributions have they made so far to fediverse?
All I want to see is if they should be considered a member of the fediverse and play by the rules that all other members follow. the answer would make the decision around federation/defederation easy
Edit:typo and added the last paragraph
There are under the hood data that is not displayed on the site which they can scrap. FB would be broke if they only rely on the FB posts alone without all the tracking everywhere. Even your movement on the screen or where you pause on the page are tracked.
So no they dont get all the data unless we federate them.
Lemmy.world’s position on Meta’s newly launched Threads
First of all, a big thank you to @[email protected] 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/
Its your choice as instance owner to do that
Visit https://fedipact.online/ to see a list of instance owners who will defederate their instance from Threads
Heads up: its a long list
Can you link to the source?
I used PowerDeleteSuite which kinda do the same thing but its browser-based
Great heads up
I just don’t get why people would join SOCIAL media if they don’t want to their posts public. Its like having a group meeting in the middle of a public square and complain people saw them
Maybe they should just use discord or or private communities instead
