Easily incorporated into the posts themselves

We should definitely block instances who insert ads into the content. However there is no evidence of threads.net doing something like this.

Not now… But they can easily do it if they get a majority market share. Don’t behave like they want? Defederated from the majority of the content.

They could threaten to defederate from us so we should defederate from them? It makes no sense.

Are you familiar with the story of EEE and XMPP?

XMPP works great, I use it everyday. It doesn't have to be popular, you only need to convince some of your friends to use it.

That would be awesome, wouldn't it be?

Do you think we live in the best possible of worlds where nothing can be improved anymore?

From my point of view the mathematicians are evil.

Well, then you are lost!

Boring tech is awesome.

Yes, they should be legally required to open up access to their service. No more walled gardens that hold a large number of users hostage.

Yes. It's a window manager, not tmux.

If the instance defederates, users do not have an option to interact with the defederated instance anymore. The only choice you have then is to join an instance where the moderation policy agrees with your values or host your own instance. If you just want to see if defederation was the right idea, you could just visit those instances directly and look at their local timeline.

How does this qualify as news?

Has it been confirmed yet?
