A lot of people dislike it for the privacy nightmare that it is and feel the threat of an EEE attack. This will also probably not be the last time that a big corporation will insert itself in the Fediverse.

However, people also say that it will help get ActivityPub and the Fediverse go more mainstream and say that corporations don’t have that much influence on the Fediverse since people are in control of their own servers.

What a lot of posts have in common is that they want some kind of action to be taken, whether it’d be mass defederating from Threads, or accept them in some way that does not harm the Fediverse as much.

What actions can we take to deal with Threads?

    I was looking forward to being able to use a mastodon to interact with people on Threads but apparently that’s the worst thing ever for you guys? What?

    Why not just go join Instagram or Facebook if you want that?

      What? Meta won’t control moderation on Mastodon.social just because they can communicate with each other. I want to be able to call politicians twats and “cunts” without fearing a banhammer. That’s what it boils down to really.
