I have already done my part on my Mastodon account.
My main concern is the awful moderation of Meta’s services. Bullying, celebration of loss of rights and violence committed towards of protected minorities; and outright misinformation are allowed. All while the very same people duped the moderation AI to flag any criticism of said hate speech as the real hate speech because false reportings. Facebook, instagram, etc. are notorious for letting big far-right accounts get away with hate speech and defamation, and I don’t really think it’ll be different on Threads for very long.
EDIT: In the meanwhile, I remembered screenshots of showing this exact moderation problem already happening on Threads, but to a way lesser degree, than on Facebook so far. Maybe this will make them getting booted from even the instances that didn’t originally plan to defederate them.
If I ever create my own messaging app, it’ll be called “updog”.
And even then, biases are not entirely bad. I often like to say, that I’m biased towards both truth and science.
Well, that’s a very different and way more concerning thing…
It’s Pawoo, Pixiv’s (formerly) own instance, which is infamous for this kind of content, and those are still “just drawings” (unless some artists are using illegal real-life references).
If you don’t like Lemmy/Kbin, then you can just go back to Reddit…
Reject cancel culture.
Embrace trashing.
Well, at least they didn’t put various Fediverse developers’ name in triple brackets, only for Space Karen to comment “Very interesting…” on it.
What also could happen is that a lot of Fediverse post could be collected, then used to build ad profiles. It’s quite easy to deanonimize people, and even if the “same user handle” tactic fails, one can just use heavy monitoring to someone to say “X on A is Y on B”. I got advertisement for Galaxy S23 Ultra cases just by talking about it.
Mfs when they realize that a public social media is public (shocking relevation):
😱
@TheImpressiveX I just saw a lot of random posts, then my cat woke up. Dreams like this often happened, but with non-Fediverse social media, which I started to use less and less often.
What I predict is that they’ll try to implement data filters to avoid feedback loops, but there will be an enshittification process for AI too.
What might put the nail into the coffin much quicker isn’t the feedback loop, but trying to monetize the whole thing. I think it’s only a matter of time until OpenAI will try to get money off of it, like putting certain features behind a paywall, especially those that professionals might use.
I often do notice it, although I sometimes wonder if people might be this stupid in real life or not.
So far it’s the Xbox 360, with the D-pad dremel-modded (coverts the D-pad from floating to almost like a mini-joystick).

Sometimes I wish they made an FPS reboot, then I remember EA owns it.
Twitter is dying, but not some very spectacular death of the service stopping to work altogether in one day, but a slow, painful one.
It’s not a bug, but a very welcome feature… for now at least. Let’s see what the future has for us.
As the fediverse becomes more and more of a feasible alternative to corporate social media, it will be inevitable that trolls and spammers will use our platform for malicious things. All we can do is to get better at moderation, maybe somehow bust these farms.
