Ive seen that pixelfed and peertube have the ability to add a licence to content. I think this would be great for everyone so we can get ahead of threads and have collective bargaining power when they inevitable put our content between ads.
Heres the pixelfed duscyssion on the issue: https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/issues/13 Here is mastadons discussion: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/20079
Im not sure if lemmy has a discussion yet i may create one later if one doesnt already exist.
ive already won my battle.
i control the flow of data into my server, now. licensing content is not a problem i have, nor do i care about what federating instances do with the content i publicly broadcast.
threads is not going to be some special exception to this… not even out of spite
