Transitive defederation -- defederating from instances that federate with Threads as well as defederating from Threads -- isn't likely to be an all-or-nothing thing in the free fediverses. Tradeoffs are different for different people and instances. This is one of the strengths of the fediverse, so however much transitive defederation there winds up being, I see it as overall as a positive thing -- although also messy and complicated.

The recommendation here is for instances to consider #TransitiveDefederation: discuss, and decide what to do. I've also got some thoughts on how to have the discussion -- and the strategic aspects.

Jesus you’re annoying.

Here is a single example from 10 seconds of scrolling.

Now, what are you going to do with that information? What was the point?

Edit: hahaha just search Mastodon for “eye contact”. There’s more than I originally thought.

content warning isnt isolation

Ah, so now that I’ve shown I wasn’t full of shit, you need to change tack.

This is something you could have responded with to my original comment.

And it is a form of isolation. Its isolation the poor sensitive souls on Mastodon subject themselves to willingly.

I’m vegan and I’ve run into vegans on mastodon who bitch and moan about CW on posts with animal products and that’s just as ridiculous.

Again, grow the fuck up.

content warning doesnt remove post from feed

if am supposed to personally block threads you can block people you think are ridiculous

do you have better thing to get mad about

[–] capital 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I’ve already fixed CW on my end by using the setting to show everything by default. They don’t personally bother me.

Those that expect me to CW benign things bother me.

My comment was and continues to be about people who isolate themselves because people post scary pictures of eye contact and plates of food.

why is block apply to threads but not people that bother you
