Yeah it’s beautiful!

Yeah me neither!

I too am in favor of defederating with Threads. If Meta just wanted to create an instance of mastodon for users who are interested or something like that maybe I would have been fine. But Meta is coming in with an entire social network with millions of users. This is going to completely disrupt fediverse and current users will be forced to interact with it in some way. In time Fediverse would be completely dependent on Meta and lose it’s own identity. The Fediverse needs more time to grow slowly as people realize that profit motivated social media just doesn’t work and want something different. With the current decentralized model, I feel we do have plenty of time to grow and don’t need meta’s user base. I think it’s time to define what fediverse stands for - it can’t be just any entity using activitypub. You have to define some rules and guidelines if you want to be part of the community.
