Dear @Gargron,

A fediverse server called Threads is violating mastodon.social’s second server rule:

“2. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia…
Transphobic behavior such as intentional misgendering and deadnaming is strictly prohibited.”

https://glaad.org/smsi/report-meta-fails-to-moderate-extreme-anti-trans-hate-across-facebook-instagram-and-threads/

Can you please defederate from this server to protect the trans people on mastodon.social?

Thank you.

PS. It’s run by these guys: https://techcrunch.com/2024/03/26/facebook-secret-project-snooped-snapchat-user-traffic/

@aral @Gargron Still haven’t seen one argument that makes sense to have bloody meta in the fediverse.
People on meta will NEVER care 1 second about the fediverse. If you want to connect with your family on meta, join meta. The whole point of the fediverse was being an alternative, not a replacement.

@hans @aral @Gargron ... So the all point of fediverse is to.. LOOSE against big tech company ?

So... You don't care about normal people then ? Their mental health on the internet, the isolation on social media ?

It's JUST a alternative ? You don't want to fight, so ?

GAFAM already won and you just want a little space only for you ? So brave.

@tripop @aral @Gargron Yes, I wish everyone their own personal online space, where they feel save to connect with other people without any interference of big tech monsters. Fediverse can make that happen.

Letting meta in without any resistance is a sell out, and probably not so brave.

@hans @aral @Gargron And it's already here with the fediverse. Every admin can open a small communities, and do that. But here it's not about that, it's about put pressure on the one that command and have power other the biggest mastodon instances and decide for 244K users.

It's not the same thing.

@hans @aral @Gargron And i mean, if we see them, they see us. So maybe, we could lets the users of this biggest social media platform see that they're alternatives ? That they can create instances ? And use it like they want ?

Like imagine : it's not threads that's a menace to fediverse and mastodon and all, it's the opposite.

@tripop @aral @Gargron I admire your optimism, but the track record of meta is so bad, I really cannot trust them for 1 second.
The fact that they enter the fediverse is nothing less than an attack to destroy.
