    I certainly hope a majority of Fediverse operators will decide to defederate Threads. I always thought it was important not to help Zuck grow his walled garden for free, but now it’s clearly a matter of decency.

      Decency or even legality. If Zuck knowingly hosts hate speech, you don’t want that federated onto your platform or you can be sued, too.

    I’ve been looking for an alternative to Facebook that I could recommend to non-tech-savvy relatives, but I haven’t been coming up with many compelling options. I posted on DailyKos (“Alternatives to the ‘F-word’?”), but it seems that BlueSky was the only popular option (which is really designed to be an alternative to Twitter rather than Facebook). Do y’all think that BlueSky will become a bona fide alternative to Facebook before the mainstream public gets religion regarding the Fediverse?
