This shouldn’t come as a huge surprise. Meta is moving forward with their plans for Theads and the Fediverse, and their adjusted terms reflect a new impending reality for Fediverse users.

    If someone had any doubts about federation with Threads, they shouldn’t by now. Facebook is trying to turn Fediverse into Shittyverse and Fedizens should resist that

      Lemmy needs an option for a user to block an instance.

      If your local instance is not going to defederate with meta then an average user can’t do anything about it.

      Yeah sure you can create a new user in other instance or selfhost an instance, but who would actually go through that?

      Defederation means you don’t see their posts. It does NOT mean they can’t see your posts.

      I still don’t think federating with them is a good idea, but defederating won’t preserve privacy. It’ll just cut down on the “influencer” BS Meta promotes.
