Threads has begun connecting to the fediverse.

    With thinking Facebook sucks? Nothing.

    With thinking Facebook sucks and Facebook’s audience should stay in Facebook while the “fediverse” stays small and exclusive? That it goes against the stated goals of providing decentralized, open social platforms as a replacement for current closed platforms.

            I said mastodon.social, whcih is one (very large) instance of the Mastodon service. Those are two different things. It is not obvious and it is confusing, though.

            I ask again if you have a point.

                Yeah I know plenty of instances limit them making follows approval only. I also saw this line on a person’s profile: “if you follow me from mastodon.social I won’t approve your requests, migrate to a different instance”.

                I think the main reason is because mastodon.social has a lot of spam (or has had it in the past) though I’m sure that the threads issue and the fact that they want to federate and encourage federation with threads probably isn’t going to help.

                Still waiting on that point, gonna stop engaging until you make one. Writing random sentences is not, in fact, making an argument.

                  stated goal is providing decentralized and open platforms

                  facebooks instance isn’t decentralized or open

                  is contradiction
