Attached: 1 image Threads hiding @pixelfed mentions, not a good look Meta 🙄

For anyone wondering if Threads and Facebook at large will be a fine neighbor in the space and compatible with other apps/services in the fediverse: they’re already automatically hiding comments that mention Pixelfed https://mastodon.social/@dansup/112126250737482807

    Who didn’t this coming? Seriously, meta will take what they want to increase the capital and makes everything else invisible.

    Fediverse isn’t here to say yes to everything. We have the freedom to say no and this is the power of the fediverse. It’s allowing and denying. And Meta is a threat to the fediverse.

      This also could cause a Streisand effect, just like Elon Musk did it with Stonetoss and Hans Kristian Graebener.

          1. After a lot of data-diving, people doxx Stonetoss. They found two live recordings, which confirm he was RedPanels. On gab, he used an email starting with hgraebener, then further data diving confirms his name.

          2. While it wasn’t 100% sure to this point, he begun blocking any leftist accounts he could, then beg Elon to “protect free speech”, which pretty much confirms it.

          3. Extreme crackdown on doxxing begin. People reported timeouts just for posting the name, or the link to Know Your Meme about Stonetoss, which now contains the doxx, as well the memes related to it.

        Will Meta embrace-extend-extinguish the ActivityPub protocol? There are comparisons to be made between Meta adopting ActivityPub for its new social media platform and Meta adopting XMPP for its Messenger service a decade ago. There was a time when users of Facebook and users of Google Talk were able to chat with each other and with people from self-hosted XMPP servers, before each platform was locked down into the silos we know today. What would stop that from repeating? Well, even if Threads abandoned ActivityPub down the line, where we would end up is exactly where we are now. XMPP did not exist on its own outside of nerd circles, while ActivityPub enjoys the support and brand recognition of Mastodon.

        That is a stunning display of naïveté.

          Can you give more I go on what you think will happen instead? I don’t doubt it’s naive, but it was my first impression. However, trying to extend skepticism to this, I guess the scenario is that threads federates, uses existing community to grow, becomes significantly larger, then starts creating proprietary protocols to draw users to its own app then enshittifies it.

      I assume you meant threat. Otherwise I misunderstood the rest of your comment dramatically :D
