A Facebook owned app collects as much data as humanly possible? I am shocked at this unforeseen development
Remember this when they try to integrate into the fedeverse. Don’t be one of the people that says “meta will make it popular!” Be one of the people that will recognize that meta will use it as a tool to extract as much information from users as possible, amongst other nefarious things
I mean, Meta can extract from the fediverse already. Having a federated instance doesn’t really change that. It doesn’t provide them deeper access than before. Theyre either federating due to EU policies on interoperability or trying to position themselves as the best instance in regards to the fediverse. There’s a lot of clamour as to how great the fediverse is for users, now they can say “choose us, we’re fediverse.” Other instances need to show them the benefit of other instances and point out that they can have all the “benefits of Threads” (really just benefits of fediverse) without all the disadvantages.

Yeah I don’t want it to be popular, I want it to be good and sustainable. Everything else comes after.
Practice makes permanent. Do it right, then get faster.
