Threads by Instagram will launch on July 6th (thanks for the heads up @dansup!) & I noticed Meta collects a lot of data. So much data!

Threads is rumored to adopt ActivityPub later on (in October maybe‽ We will see), but when it joins the Fediverse (if not on launch day), it’s data collection policies will make it easier to convince some (but not all) to migrate over to Misskey, Pixelfed, Mastodon & Pleroma.

Note: Uploading on Misskey as my Mastodon account @darnell is being fixed server side right now.

@darnell @darnell @dansup The thing Musk is turning Twitter into deserves to go the way of MySpace, but I hate the idea that Meta could take that segment of social media over, too, along with Facebook and Instagram. If we had responsible, muscular antitrust enforcement, that would all be broken up into separate entities to maintain competition.
