Yeah this is a more uptight place than reddit. I was getting in arguments with a bunch of people who were horny to ban every fucking instance that they thought was impolite. I suspect some of them were spez-hired goons sent to undermine the new thing.

Federation will become part of our cultural language and people will come over at that point.

They’ll start setting standards, other instances will comply, and meta will control (or destroy) the fediverse.

You think we can’t get people to join lemmy unless our Genius Daddy Savior Zuck brings them in?

Nobody is suggesting that we destroy Threads. We just don’t want to let it control the fediverse.
