Honestly, the more I think about this, I feel like keeping Threads will pull more people FROM there than it will push people away from Lemmy... once they learn what the fediverse is.
Anyone that's on Lemmy **now ** isn't going to go over to Threads.
Not federating it seems like a weird choice. Can't each user block Threads themselves if they want? Isn't that the point of the fediverse? User control?
If everyone is tolerant of every idea, then intolerant ideas will emerge. Tolerant people will tolerate this intolerance, and the intolerant people will not tolerate the tolerant people.
I suspect many other libraries of people here do the same. They don't have everything, but, they have enough and you can use your phone, computer or kindle or whatever to borrow and read them.
what's the difference between block and mute? Block just lets them not see your feed and notifies them of this, but mute just hides anything they post from you?
We play almost every Monday, Wednesday and Friday night... for over 5 years now. lol.
