Meta’s new app “Threads” is up pre-order in the App Store. Let’s do a quick check on what data they want from you compared to the official Mastodon app, Mammoth and Ivory.

Spoiler: Meta wants to know and track everything about you, and Mastodon doesn’t want anything.

@clifff there's a reason why I block everything that even remotely smells like Meta on my network. 🔥

Because it will force people to choose between you or Meta when their non technical friends and family are on Threads?

Yeah, block without thinking out of fear and anger.

Social pressure won't do it for me. You wanna stay on WhatsApp? Fine, goodbye.
