Defederate from threads/meta (self.asklemmy)

Hi guys,

So I maybe have a major noob question. But with threads and meta joining the fediverse, and instances should (could/shouldn't/will or will not) defederate from them... Is there something that I, as a simple user, can of should do?

Update Ok so lemmy.world just posted this https://lemmy.world/post/1274909

Saying they are going to wait and see.

To be honest, I don't trust meta for one bit so maybe it is time to switch server

Update 2 I liked this post https://ploum.net/2023-06-23-how-to-kill-decentralised-networks.html

Update 3 Apparently I can't migrate my account (yet)...

Lemmy.ml just preemptively did it. I think lemmy.world also did it earlier but you'll have to double check that.

lemmy.ca has blocked it too.

good eggs, those admins.

threads.net is not listed in the blocked instances on lemmy.world/instances, so they haven't done it as of now. I can see it in lemmy.ml/instances

Do we know that this is the one and only domain that they will use when and if they actually enable federation ?

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How would that even work? afaik lemmy can only see communities. would it show up as a huge stream in one community?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

it's based on mastodon as far as I know, so it will show a community per user where only the community owner can post.

I'm not sure about replies though...

What is the benefit of that? What would happen if Threads users could integrate with Lemmy?
