Seeing as this conversation is going on everywhere right now, what’s the approach to Meta going to be here on UK? Personally I’m all for defederation as soon as possible, what does everyone else think?

    I don’t believe they will stick with the ActivityPub outside of their initial start up period for Threads. While they are federating though it will be a fantastic opportunity to introduce users to Lemmy from Threads. If the Lemmy integration in Threads is anything like Mastodon’s then I think it’s more then worthwhile given that Lemmy is offering something Threads isn’t currently covering.

    However I think the onus should be on Meta to Federate respectfully, if they aren’t willing to federate without contracts getting involved then I think that’s completely against the spirt of the Fediverse and Meta shouldn’t be allowed to operate in that capacity.
