I’ve checked the fedipact signatories, but they all seem to be lemmy instances.
Mine won’t nor will any of my other 3 Fediverse servers.
I know of a number of Mastodon servers that have already de-federated or limited threads.net, even though it does not yet connect to the Fediverse. Some are even limiting or suspending connections to servers that refuse to de-federate from threads.net and are trying to pressure other servers to do the same.
An Admin has no right to force their personal agendas onto all the people who are on their servers. People are competent enough to make their own decisions and can individually decide to block or limit Threads. I block servers on my server to protect members from hateful people.
I will limit threads.net if their moderation is inadequate, just as I do now for a number of Mastodon servers that don’t do much to keep hatred and offensive content off their servers. This won’t prevent anyone from following someone or being followed by someone, on threads.net. It just means that people on my server need to approve being followed and that posts from threads.net won’t show up in the public timeline.
At this point, I haven’t heard of any Kbin instances planning to de-federate but there’s a ton of yacking about it on Mastodon. I finally muted the “threads” hashtag to get some peace from it.
Im not going to deny the threat of Extend/Embrace/Extinguish, but everyone defederating now, and threatening to defederate all other instances that dont do so as well, comes across as an incredible hasty and mostly an emotionally driven decision.
an incredible hasty and mostly an emotionally driven decision.
There is probably not another tech company I can name that has proven repeatedly to be as untrustworthy with the care they take for user privacy and negative impacts of their platform than Meta. I’d be less up in arms about federating with Twitter, and I’d be none too happy about that.
Let’s not ignore that this isn’t just any old company, this is the king of corporate bad actors. There is ample evidence that we should view them with suspicion, and no evidence whatsoever that we should not.
