Am I the only one who’s confused why it’s such a bad thing for Threads to federate?

It’s just essentially be a really big instance. People can turn it off or go to instances that defederate from threads if they hate it.

My potentially controversial (at least here) take is that the Fediverse needs a few mainstream players like Threads to flourish long-term. It’ll be some serious mainstream attention on what federated services offer, and also a shallow end of the pool that normal people can start their Fediverse journey in

I’m all tapped out on the reply guys everywhere else. Time to retire to what feels like the social media version of pirate radio, where we own our own servers

But did they proceed 👀
