The idea is to show normies on Threads that it's better over here without so the ads and shit. Let Meta introduce them to the fediverse.

The screen refresh rate makes this unusable. They need to keep a high refresh rate and just report whatever rate they want in the fingerprint protection

Librewolf is my go-to

I tried that one too. I couldn't stick with it. I don't remember why now.

Same here. I looked for alternatives but nothing worked as well.

Those that are on Threads are likely not even aware of the rest of the fediverse. I think that when they interact with us they will be. And when Meta decides it's time to start ads some people will think it's better over here. Also, some people won't like Threads using an algorithm on their feed.

I'm not a fan of Meta and I don't want to join Threads. But there may be some people over there I would like to follow. At least on Mastodon, we can block any instance we choose to manually. I hate when instances make the decision for me.

Defederation should be a last resort when there are so many options here for people to tailor their own feeds.

They are going to need an algorithm if they want to keep people. The whole fediverse needs it for that matter. It makes for less work for the user base. User chosen or created is fine, but they need it.

I'm the only Android user in my family. We use Signal for messaging and video calls. Anything Google implements is not likely to be cross platform anyway.

I'll use mull again when I can scroll without the screen looking like a strobe light
