Fediverse

anyone surprised doesn't know lemmy.ml

Waiting for others to follow.

I’m actually shocked by the growth of threads, I underestimated how much people don’t care about their digital privacy.

There we go. Not the wishy washy mastodon non-announcement. Although I understand their "neutrality" too, it's still like they wanna seem like the big boys. Sometimes it's advantageous to be small. This "fuck you" may be just adorable to Zuck, but it's also genuine.

Generally disagree. If you want the Fediverse to become a large open standard, if not the largest, then this is going to just be a matter of course. Companies will seek to commodify all their offerings, whether they use open standards or not. Many exist that commodify on top of open-source software and open standards. The important part is to ACHEIVE the open standard to begin with, and I think it's short-sighted to pre-emptively block something that could be a strong item down that path, and before it might show itself to be more harmful towards that goal.

It can always be blocked later, situation-depending.

Lemm.ee intends to do the same “If Threads ever becomes interoperable with Lemmy”
