I saw in the posts recently how Metas thread grew rapidly in a span of just a day. I understand that since threads posts a privacy nightmare (no surprises there) I’m leaning towards de-federating with them.

But I am also cautiously excited about the massive amount of content if we federated instead.

So for purposes of discussion, may I know the pros and cons of federating with threads?

I don’t want the fediverse to be fragmented and Balkanized. Federate with everyone unless it’s a kiddy porn ring.

Give threads a chance. You can revisit if it turns out problematic

Give the untrustworthy a chance again. Should be fun til they steal all your data to turn much profit, push more ads than taco bell and push your ass to the bottom of the pool, unless you play to their algorithmic beat. I am so in!
