Thought of the morning: When trying to predict the future of #ActivityPub federation by #Facebook / Meta / #ThreadsDotNet, and the effect it will have on the independent Fediverse, what can we learn by looking at the history of RSS functionality on Facebook?

In particular, might this be a better example than focusing on the fact that Facebook killed interoperability XMPP/Jabber interoperability for their chat system?

I'd love to hear others' thoughts on this.

How to block Threads on Mastodon

If you're one of the fediverse influencers who sees Threads arrival it as "historic" and "a glimpse of the future" ... well, you might want to skip this post.

Is there any procedure available for blocking Threads from within Tusky or is it necessary to use a web login for maintenance?

FediDB, Fediverse Network Statistics

FediDB is a cutting-edge service providing detailed statistics and insights into the Fediverse network.

I want zero interaction with any Meta product.

Is there a way to block Threads on here other than having to block each Threads account individually?

@TwodpadsDown

That screenshot applies *only* to people on Threads, with accounts on Threads

It has nothing to do with anyone on #Mastodon or anywhere else on the #Fediverse

Do *you* understand how any of this works?

Then, I've been replying continually to Mosseri's cloned #Threads posts over here on #Mastodon since mid-December, so I'm well-aware of exactly how all this works -- in reality

Or doesn't work

In a few weeks (or less the way things are going) it'll be time to #DomainBlock #ThreadsdotNet and clear my timeline of all this noise

UPDATE:

See pinned post; Domain Block for @Threads.net and word filter for Threads

Although I am strongly in favor of #defederation from #Facebook / #ThreadsDotNet / Meta, I feel less confident about what kinds of claims we can make about safety and harassment. My friend @harris has made some interesting points about #inclusion and the fact that if we *could* federate with Meta without problems, we'd be able elevate the voices of a lot more minorities than we do now.

New Sounds really changed my life. Disappointed to read that they're joining #ThreadsDotNet
