Does Lemm.ee plan to de-federate from instagram threads? (lemm.ee)

I cam here to get away from all the corporate BS, but suddenly people want to welcome Facebook/Meta to the fediverse? I cannot fathom how people see their intentions as pure or innocent, especially since they aim to profit off of the open source software everyone has worked so hard on.

I just don’t see how the fediverse survives if it decides to let these massive companies make their instances. It feels like it’ll be a repeat of the rise of social media, where all the smaller forms got wiped out by large, consolidated social media platforms.

Can’t you put threads.net on the defederation list anyway, even if there’s nothing to federate yet? That way, there’s not even a chance for it happening.

Well, at this point, we don't even know for sure if threads.net will become their ActivityPub domain, so we can't guarantee anything by doing this. But I will make a post about this topic.

I didn't think about that threads.net might not be their domain. I still wouldn't think it'd be bad to just put it there since that domain would very likely be it, but then it'd definitely be fine for me to wait for the actual domain.
