I signed the pledge to not ever federate with them, and unlike the DARE pledges they made us sign in school, I’m taking this one seriously.
DARE to do drugs
DARE to keep threads defed’d
Do All Recreational Enhancers!
Dope Amphetamines Roofies Extacy
I’m 3/4ths the way there.
Threads uses can now “follow” fediverse accounts but “only if they’ve interacted with a post on Threads” and the posts “wont appear in your feeds.”
Well played, Zuck. Hilarious.
lol 😂
but yeah, it IS coming.
You think this is the last step?
Perhaps there will be an infinite number of steps, each of them getting smaller and smaller as the result asymptotically approaches whatever barely-functional sham version of federation is deemed most profitable for Meta Platforms Inc.
No thank you.
BlueSky seems like an obviously better fit. The more corporate interests are protected on and by Lemmy the less interesting it is…
…and plaves like c/News are already there to mostly protect and defend corporate interests.
What do you mean by ‘amd’? I’ve heard it s couple times but searching just gives the !amd@lemmy.world sub and a few misc posts about AMD on lemmy
Part of why Lemmy can federate and why they’re so innovative is because they’re not stored in a traditional server space, instead, theyre run on old Bitcoin graphics cards . Some of which AMD 600 - 1000 series, are supposedly easier to network and run in parallel, so when I talk about AMD Lemmy, I mean using thise parts of Lemmy as a bridge, or network gateway to Threads.
oh I see. Thank you!
The slow drip of fediverse features has been frustrating, but it feels like there’s finally light at the end of the tunnel. It’s been absolutely amazing even having the level of interop we have between Mastodon <-> Threads, and it’s about to get so much better. I feel like a whole lot of people out there who think they’re getting what they need out of Bluesky (news, memes, friends, whatever) would get much the same experience if they were just using the fediverse as ActivityPub intended (aka sign up for a variety of services and wire 'em up!).
hey look, threads can do something Lemmy can’t! shame it’s the only good thing they can do
A lot of effort to be blocked by most everyone from the fediverse. I don’t want the ads or to be tracked. I also don’t need dumb ass lib takes that come from contributions to capitalist social media. I’ll get the best ones from screenshots here or mastodon tvm.
Remember: it takes two to tango. Threads might want to federate, but a lot of Fediverse instances want nothing to do with Facebook.
