Wait is this a thing, have they said this already? (I fully assume they will but missed it if they already have)
I think it’s referring to Threads.
Yeah, but has threads made an official statement like this yet on defederation rules? I’m an instance owner so I’m pretty sure I’d just reply back “lol”
I saw that mentioned on Mastodon, but honestly don’t care enough about Threads to actually look at their TOS. Seems likely though given they’re all about making it as bland and corporate friendly as possible.
Does it have to be said? If you allow certain things they’re definitely blocking you
no of course not, it’s obvious, I was just surprised they already said the quiet part out loud, right now they seem to be all “buddy buddy” like we’re all stupid
Well there are apparently users here who want to see Threads content. I don’t know why you would want that, and here of all places…
I mean, I wish celebrities were jumping on other options rather than “ooo shiny new facebook”, they’re the only ones I would personally follow, but other than that if you want to follow me choose a platform that federates
They can sign up a free account on Threads, no need to bring that here.
Why is it shocking?
Exactly. Every instance will defederate from another if they are not acting in the way that they want. I don’t see why Threads would be any different.
I guess the difference may be that the policies are much more restrictive rather than something like “is a frequent source of spam and hate speech” but there is always going to be a policy.
Please use this official mascot for Calckey because it’s funnier
😀
“We will defederate you!” “Ok me first”
Isn’t that what every instance already does?
Yea but the difference is most instances have ethical reasons for banning certain content.
Meta could randomly decide anti-meta content doesn’t belong on their platform. I wouldn’t be surprised if this is already the case.
[you have been banned from Threads]
“You can’t ban me because I quit”
“You can’t quit, you’re a lizard.”
I’ll believe it when I see it. The fact they allowed it the first step on the majority of instances(by user count) means when we cool off they will win the next step too.
Think of meta like reddit. Don’t want to be on facebook via federation? Just post jonny O or NSFW. Not like facebook is going to do anything but defederate from your instance. Kind of like how all instances work.
I’m surprised that nsfw spam is a viable trick. It makes sense, it just feels so weird to be viable. I’d expect it to mysteriously become against the rules as per my above post though. I’d prefer to talk about meta and their help towards genocide etc though. I’ll have to start making a list of their dirty deeds.
Thats some good stuff for a bot to keep signing up and posting to facebook proper. But don’t listen to me I have bad ideas
Lmao wait did they actually try that…?
What’s the name of the fediverse services in the image, beside Mastodon and Pixelfed?
The three triangles is PeerTube, the F is Friendica, and don’t recognize the last one.
i think that’s Calckey, another microblogging software like Mastodon with an arguably prettier interface
Ah yeah that sounds right.
