For anyone wondering if Threads and Facebook at large will be a fine neighbor in the space and compatible with other apps/services in the fediverse: they’re already automatically hiding comments that mention Pixelfed https://mastodon.social/@dansup/112126250737482807
What are these examples and how do they relate to what Meta is doing?

I just feel like this strategy won’t work for activitypub. The whole idea is to make interoperable web platforms. If meta tries to damage that then I don’t see why activitypub developers would cooperate when it’s against the whole purpose of the project.
it will not, but theres a hate-fetish for meta on lemmy and logic has nothing to do with it.
its all ‘but they are bad actors’ but never ‘this is the technical way they will extend the protocol to weaken it’ because there isnt anything.
threads is just another instance moderating inbound content. somehow thats going to kill thousands of independent pieces of software.
