I didn't come to a new service just to see it get taken over by the corporate beasts who ruined the internet in general, and I am sure as hell am not going to use an instance that doesn't care about its users.

I think the admin of this instance might have been paid off to federate with Threads, it being one of the most popular.

So, I am giving y'all 24 hours to defederate and if the Lemmy.world admins don't, I'm-a bounce and close down my subs behind me

That is all

Two thoughts:

So there's a bit of talk about Threads being a mastodon/microblogging type platform and so it doesn't matter. This is somewhat wrong. Lemmy federates in a certain way with microblogging platforms such that two-way communication can and does occur between such platforms. However likely it is, when Threads turns on their federation they will be able to subscribe/follow and post to lemmy communities.
Picking a server/instance on the basis of its moderations issues is basically the first idea or utility behind decentralisation. So ... umm ... continue on your merry way ... this is the point. I know lemmy.ml has definitely defederated already.
