I feel like we should federate with threads.net - sh.itjust.works

Yes, yes I know this is an unpopular opinion but let me give you guys an example that relates to this. You guys know email? Well if you had made an email instance and then Google made Gmail, would you guys block it? No. Just because it’s made by a big company does not mean you should block it. What if you wanted to talk to people on threads? What if you wanted more content because there is more users on there? Please don’t defederate from threads people.

Threads supporting activitypub is an attempt at a hostile takeover of the fediverse. Please read this article: ploum.net/2023-06-23-how-to-kill-decentralised-ne…

Also, since you mentioned E-Mail, you’ll probably want to know how the exact same thing is happening there: www.igregious.com/…/gmail-is-breaking-email.html?…

The fediverse isn’t as deeply integrated into our everyday lives as E-Mail, so we can still prevent it from being taken over by corporations.
