TL;DR: The common view on Meta’s Threads is that it will be either all good or all bad, leading to oversimplified and at the end contra productive propositions like the Fedipact. But in reality, it’s behaviour will most likely change dynamically over time, and therefore, to prevent us getting in a position, in which Threads can actually perform EEE on us, we need to adapt a dynamic strategy as well.

    I just thought the fediverse was going to be free of corporate/advertising/tracking shit-show.

    If it isn’t going to be free of corporate bullshit why be here instead of Instagram or Twitter or Facebook?

    What is the difference? None.

    I used to care. But now? I don’t care where people go on the internet. Why be invested in fediverse if the fediverse is just another FaceBook?

      For me its not about corporate/non-corporate. I think it would already hugely improve the situation if social networking wouldn’t be controlled by one monopoly.

      It’s the same with E-Mail and RSS. It’s working fine because there is no monopoly.
