While I agreed those who do not want federation with Threads should leave (me included), lemmy.world has not bent any knee. The admin is taking a wait and see approach, and willing to block if it turns out bad

They seems to really embrace open social media. I have a couple of questions to see what their true intension is. It is assumed that they would federate with fediverse soon (plenty of reports of that already)

  1. Would they support 3rd party apps to browse their contents without ads/tracking? I do not mind paying if true
  2. If I do not agree with how they moderate/treat users, can I move somewhere else (aka another Threads instance)? Can another Threads instance even be set up independently or they are the only player
  3. Would they contribute their improvements on Threads to ActivityPub (after thorough community review of course)?
  4. What contributions have they made so far to fediverse?

All I want to see is if they should be considered a member of the fediverse and play by the rules that all other members follow. the answer would make the decision around federation/defederation easy

Edit:typo and added the last paragraph

At least governments/any essential services around the world should

First of all, a big thank you to @ruud@lemmy.world and team for building such a good place for us to hang out. You guys rock!

I am interested to see your opinion on the recently launched Threads from meta, specially around possible federation/defederation in the future

Some instance owners are open to federation, some takes wait and see approach, while some will block them outright as seen on https://fedipact.online/

Its your choice as instance owner to do that

Visit https://fedipact.online/ to see a list of instance owners who will defederate their instance from Threads

Heads up: its a long list

I doubt people joining small instances would miss any content from FB/Instagram/Threads/Twitter

The content on reddit is huge but I cut the tie and happier with Lemmy.

it will collect a wide variety of data from users, including health, financial information, browsing histories, location, purchases, contacts, search history and sensitive information.

How do you block an app from accessing browsing/search history/purchase?

Post with text AND link does not show link in Memmy at the moment. It has been reported here https://lemmy.world/post/1022041

Great idea. I was trying to figure out if it was lemmy.world trying to deal with new users or a bug with Memmy app that caused random errors

Is it possible to have the lag metrics by instances in a table format? Its so hard to view your site on mobile

Can you please summaries your posts into a tldr ?

Definitely. We need a way to sustain this. Many of us me included would be happy to pay for a service that respect us, and especially those volunteering admins/mods. They deserve to be paid

Thats very considerate of you

Please don’t take those complaints as negative feedback. I don’t think Lemmy is designed to be private and your search engine would be a great of help to the whole community.

By the way, do you plan to create a community to discuss about your search engine? Maybe users can help you with testing or report issues or improvement

Great heads up

I just don’t get why people would join SOCIAL media if they don’t want to their posts public. Its like having a group meeting in the middle of a public square and complain people saw them

Maybe they should just use discord or or private communities instead
