The Nexus of PrivacyTwo polls about federating with Threads (1/2)
Threads (a fairly new social network from Facebook's parent company Meta) is testing integration with the fediverse.
Opinions differ on whether or not this is a good thing.
Some people think this is great: if all goes well, it's an opportunity for people on Mastodon, Pixelfed, Misskey, and other fediverse platfirms to follow (and eventually communicate with) friends and public figures on Threads.
Others see it as a threat -- because of Meta's long history of exploiting people's data without consent, hosting hate groups and harassers, discriminating against LGBTQ+ people, Black activists, and Palestinians, and contributing to genocides.
When the prospect of Threads federating was first discussed last summer, most polls showed that opinions were roughly split.
What do people think now that it's getting real?
This poll asks about what you personally plan to do; the followon poll asks about what you want your instance to do.
