Have Facebook not heard of the Internet? Anyone can right click save as.
They have, old politicians haven’t

Except it’s not deferderated by everyone.
Edit: It’s actually opt-in.
… in certain areas:
Yeah, because your instance and almost all instances have decided to straight-up defederate
No, it didn’t defederate from Threads.
cuz Meta will access the federated info
Meta will access Threads accounts via federation? Um, sure… I mean it’s on their platform already…
I just edited my comment to add a link to the guide for opting in.
“Be outside Europe” is hardly a guide to opt in. 🙄 I’m in Europe and my Threads profile just isn’t available on ActivityPub. Period.
If Brazilian fediverse is anything like English fediverse, its community was probably tied up in discussions who to deferderate from next and vegan cat food instead of promoting Mastodon.
Threads uses opt-out ActivityPub.
That’s not true. I can neither opt my test account in nor out of ActivityPub. It’s simply not available to Mastodon.
That’s not how ActivityPub works.
Do regular Mastodon instances and clients play nicely with Threads?
You can’t connect to Threads using a Mastodon client but you can follow select Threads accounts from the Mastodon instance your client is connected to. Threads is still in what is basically a public beta. That’s why there are currently no ads there either (but they were announced recently).
Given how long it took to fix the federation issues back in december (0.19 update), I’d be hesitant about updating, too.
But you’re on a 0.19.5 instance. Do you experience issues? There’s some incompatibility with Mastodon, apparently, but given that 0.19.5 addresses serious privacy issues and has been out for a while without big problems, the privacy fixes are more important than keeping 100% Mastodon compatibility. Surely 0.19.6 will be out soon enough to address them.
is shared with a few other active services.
Why would you do that, given that Lemmy is 0.x software?
I can’t answer that but the test comment looks OK.
Lastly, you used the word crazy about me two sentences in a row, on a two sentences post. Chill.
The person who couldn’t let the simple and true statement “Hosting costs money. “Monetization” doesn’t mean disruptive ads.” stand is in no position to tell others to chill. Maybe just accept true statements next time.
Op wasn’t very specific on what monetisation he was talking about either.
Why did you make crazy assumptions, then?
What is your point exactly?
That you made crazy assumptions that were never in OP’s question in the first place.
Hosting cost money, so an host can setup a patreon to make money to host his peertube instance.
That’s a type of monetization.
Monetisation like YouTube-monetisation means ads everywhere because, monetisation on YouTube comes from publicity.
OP didn’s ask about “YouTube-like monetization”.
Why does it need monetisation?
Hosting costs money. “Monetization” doesn’t mean disruptive ads.
It’s not. https://fedia.io/register
They certainly removed the register link from the header bar and at some point announced that to keep server costs in check, registrations would be closed. I don’t know if you can successfully submit a registration when opening that address directly but considering that the admins don’t want additional users for understandable reasons, I’m not going to try what happens.
Edit: Oh the register link is there under the login window. Seems they reversed their decision, maybe after enough donations arrived. Very good.
fedia: No. Registrations are closed.
Thanks for the correction, DarkThoughts. Seems there were enough donations do reopen registrations. 👍
paid newsletters
Baffled those exist.
This seems like a reasonable thing to require of services that aren’t dependent on each other for basic functionality.
They don’t. All Meta/Facebook services can be decoupled since the EU enforces the DMA gatekeeper status. Meta just needs to add Turkey to the same decoupling whitelist as the EU countries, and the issue is immediately solved.
I’d say questions regarding the leanings of specific instances are legitimate and those have been answered but questions regarding what constitutes terrorism and the motivations of fighters in armed conflicts are out of scope for this community. This is just a community about the Fediverse on Lemmy World, we don’t arbitrate moderation disagreements here.
