2. Meta/Facebook is trying to join the Fediverse. We need to defederate them.
3. If you're a server admin, please defederate Meta's domain "threads.net" (here's how on Mastodon https://fedi.tips/how-to-defederate-fediblock-a-server-on-mastodon/)
4. If you don't run your own server, please ask your server admin to defederate "threads.net". Your admin is listed on your server website's About page.
Meta just announced that they are trying to integrate Threads with ActivityPub (Mastodon, Lemmy, etc.). We need to defederate them if we want to avoid them pushing their crap into fediverse.
If you’re a server admin, please defederate Meta’s domain “threads.net”
If you don’t run your own server, please ask your server admin to defederate “threads.net”.
Linuxist… I’ve not seen that term before; I like it. I suppose it’s for the super hardcore Linux user?
Interesting you lumped them with the other two. XD
The only way I can see them serving adverts is by using submissions as the mechanism. But I assume there is no feedback to show how many impressions those submissions have made. So how can Meta sell those advertising spots without any data to flaunt to advertisement buyers and how do they appropriately charge them.
