Thank you for your patience. After observing the first 24 hours of Threads, we decided to block threads.net (in advance of them at some point joining the Fediverse).

There are openly, aggressively transphobic accounts on Threads.net with no visible attempt at moderation. We would defederate from any other Fediverse instance with that behaviour and no moderation, and there is no reason to treat threads.net any different.

Let's say I'm a small-time #Threads user, and I want to use the app to talk and read about some niche sports event happening right now, one that only gains traction in a community of enthusiasts, like an early season bike race, or some darts competition that's not the World Championships -- something in that ballpark. In #Fediverse and #Twitter they've got a hashtag for that, and the conversation is flowing, people are coming together. So I open the Threads app, and I've got my feed open. Now, there's no hashtags there. There's also no search function there. So what can I do? That's right -- nothing. I can only read what the algorithm wants me to read, and that's it. How, I repeat, how can Threads ever be relevant?

@iuculano

WTF...this is the dumbest stringing together of hot-button garbage words I've ever read.

So on #Threads
β€’ You can't have hashtags
β€’ You can't search for content
β€’ you can't talk to your French cousins because they can't download it
β€’ you cannot use this app if you are blind or visually impaired

But #mastodon is the wrong platform because you have to choose your server. #meta #socialnetwork #socialmedia

Yikes. Free sales outreach people do themselves, for billionaires

The prerequisite for joining Mastodon is lower back pain and needing to sit down at a concert and knowing where you were when you first heard a Boomer reference knowing where they were when JFK died

Hypothesis: The Fediverse consists almost entirely of adults. I expect most youths are drawn to the large corporate social networks; but those of us who took the effort to come here have likely experienced the Internet before most of those existed. Of course, the only way to test this is by collecting data using the most scientifically rigorous method available to me: a Mastodon poll, lol (I expect this will only reach English-speaking Fedi, but do boost if you're able) ⬇️ What is your age? ⬇️ [ ] Less than 18 years old [ ] 18 to 27 years old [ ] 28 to 39 years old [ ] 40 or more years old
