Meta just announced that they are trying to integrate Threads with ActivityPub (Mastodon, Lemmy, etc.). We need to defederate them if we want to avoid them pushing their crap into fediverse.

If you're a server admin, please defederate Meta's domain "threads.net"

If you don't run your own server, please ask your server admin to defederate "threads.net".

why do you want to follow famous people and companies

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Why not? I want to keep up to date with their announcements and products. Famous people could be writers, journalists, whatever.

Following famous people and companies is what 99% of users of "normal" social media do.

I don't want to use Meta's apps, because they're a privacy nightmare. Full of trackers
