True, but if server owner pulls the plug, all the content you have there is gone. They can also unilaterally delete your posts.

I guess my point is ownership isn’t as important as control.

SoundCloud vapes content and entire accounts all the time.

Lol no. That said, I’m on Threads too so whatevs.

Each instance has complete control over what is posted on it. The only way to truly own your posts is to set up your own instance and interact only with communities on it.
