Yeah I heard alot of people in the Fediverse saying that Meta Threads should be immediately defederated. But I believe that this is a great chance for the Fediverse to grow as a whole. But I think we should only defederate from them when they actually do something that’s against the Fediverse (like doing the “Embrace / Extend / Extinguish” tactic).
Threads implementing ActivityPub is the “embrace” phase
Paperclip machine gonna paperclip. Threads, as an entity, is just an incidental product. Meta’s sole purpose is to swallow and consume. It’s the same reason why people (generally) don’t keep wolves as pets.
Then I think it only logical that you leave here and relocate to Threads.
Boosting because as far as I can tell, this really is an unpopular opinion. Well done, and I completely disagree.
This is the Embrace phase. They’re doing that tactic. So the time to defederate, presuming we only do so when they do E/E/E, is immediately.
