Copy, Acquire, Kill— How Meta could pull off the most extraordinary pivot in tech history - Lemmy.World

What if Meta’s hidden objective behind the Threads-to-Mastodon initiative is a play on app.net [http://app.net]? And, what if threads.net [http://threads.net] is a measured step towards what could be the greatest pivot in all of tech?

Sigh…

No. We’ll just make a new mastodon/ lemmy-verse without them. Its easy enough. At a certain point the world needs to understand that its these companies, not the format, we’re avoiding.

we’re avoiding

“We” are a minority share of the market and no one really cares about “us”. “We” are irrelevant and we will keep being irrelevant unless we start actual and effective evangelizing for an open web.

This is not just about “avoiding”, it’s about fighting for culture change.

Eh I’m pretty happy if they just stay over there haha

nah im not.

we cant expect thing to get better if we dont help heal the people in a way we can.

There’s nothing wrong with the people who use it. It’s their choice. I just don’t want that content in my space.
The only space that is truly “yours” in the Fediverse is the one concerning your feed and the data you create.

It’s my instance and the ones it federates with.

I can move instance or host my own if I don’t agree with my current ones choices.

Do you treat the people on the same instance as you as “taking your space”? Wouldn’t it better to think of it as shared, which means that it is not really yours or anyone else’s?
Mine is a personal instance used only by myself.
