@binarytango @fediversenews The moment when you realize that annoying little captcha step is there for a good reason.
Practically speaking, notmeta.social will need to federate with servers that federate with Meta -- but not Meta.

Why is that?

So that people on Meta-federated servers can easily migrate their accounts to notmeta.social. You see, if we don't federate with those servers, account migration won't be possible. And I want to make it easy for people to migrate over to a server that doesn't federate with Meta.

Nevertheless, notmeta.social will not federate with any Meta-owned servers.
@atomicpoet And that's reasonable.
so, the reddit API protest has taken a different direction, now people are uploading gigabtyes of videos to reddit which are just noise. i cannot stress this enough, do NOT run the command ffmpeg -filter_complex "nullsrc=s=1920x1080,geq=random(1)*255:128:128[vout]" -map "[vout]" -t 46 -c:v libx264 out.mp4 in order to generate one of these large video files then upload them en masse in order to slow down their servers, that totally will not help with the protest

Facebook is trash, Twitter is garbage, Google is useless

embrace tradition

INTERNET YELLOW PAGES

Funny how when #BlueSky got the first few thousand accounts all of tech media immediately started tripping one over another covering it and getting a collective aneurysm.  

Meanwhile, #Threadiverse gets ~70k accounts over 2 weeks, and (with the fine exception of #Techdirt) not a peep. 

@inkican @stux Assuming that is the case, then aren't the Fediverse residents who are stirring up drama over the meeting playing right into Meta's hands?

@dgold I mean you came here to lash out at someone for an incident that didn't involve you that they were in the process of trying to correct. Also how you're now clumsily trying retcon the reasons for the incident to justify you inserting yourself into the situation that doesn't involve you. Certainly sounds like you were looking to cause drama.

Regardless, the incident is now settled. Curator can go bother some else, and so can you. 😜

@dgold Or you're reading too much into a word choice because you want to be justified in causing drama.
@dgold Most recently, any that didn't preemptively agree to block Meta, such as universodon. Then there's the blocking of news/journalist servers such as press.coop or journa.host. Hell, over 100 of them are listed as "Reason not available".
