  • Questions on the openness of Meta’s Threads

    They seems to really embrace open social media. I have a couple of questions to see what their true intension is. It is assumed that they would federate with fediverse soon (plenty of reports of that already)

    1. Would they support 3rd party apps to browse their contents without ads/tracking? I do not mind paying if true
    2. If I do not agree with how they moderate/treat users, can I move somewhere else (aka another Threads instance)? Can another Threads instance even be set up independently or they are the only player
    3. Would they contribute their improvements on Threads to ActivityPub (after thorough community review of course)?
    4. What contributions have they made so far to fediverse?

    All I want to see is if they should be considered a member of the fediverse and play by the rules that all other members follow. the answer would make the decision around federation/defederation easy

    Edit:typo and added the last paragraph

    Why Defederating from Facebook/Meta is So Important
  • There are under the hood data that is not displayed on the site which they can scrap. FB would be broke if they only rely on the FB posts alone without all the tracking everywhere. Even your movement on the screen or where you pause on the page are tracked.

    So no they dont get all the data unless we federate them.

  • Lemmy.world’s position on Meta’s newly launched Threads

    First of all, a big thank you to @ruud@lemmy.world and team for building such a good place for us to hang out. You guys rock!

    I am interested to see your opinion on the recently launched Threads from meta, specially around possible federation/defederation in the future

    Some instance owners are open to federation, some takes wait and see approach, while some will block them outright as seen on https://fedipact.online/

    Why I probably won't defederate from Threads
  • Thats the nice thing about fediverse. People with different opinions can co-exist and they have freedom to choose what they want

    Big enough is nice but I’d rather have a small community without anything to do with the big tech.

  • (Resolved) Can anyone swipe to reply to comments (v0.0.1 75)

    Edit: my bad. I swiped too far. A short swipe worked. Thanks @derelict@derelict@lemmy.world and others in comments

    Just want to confirm before raising an issue on github

    Replying to comment was working for me then it stopped working. I tried to swipe as much as I can from right to left, almost reaching my left side of the screen but nothing happened

    Same issue whether Swipe Gesture setting was on or off. Swipe to upvote/downvote works
