@freamon Agreed, it’s a silver lining post, for sure.
But generally I find people say “you see, this is why the Fediverse/Lemmy/Mastodon etc will never take off” for every blip of bad news or whatever. But in reality, while the news sucks for .ml servers, it highlights the resiliency of the Fediverse - which is a win.
And better to happen in the early days of Lemmy than when/if it got much bigger.
@freamon can you imagine if Lemmy (in total) was just *poof* grabbed by a government?
The fediverse lives to ride another day.
@Tag365 It’s just their IG verification coming over to Threads.
@RxBrad agreed, BUT with Threads, you see all these brands & celebrities in your feed even if someone you follow just likes something from them! You get assaulted by corporations!
So very thankful for the Fediverse.
@Jeze3D @fediverse pretentious?
Not sure if you read the article, but I’m originally an Instagram user.
@Defiance @fediverse not sure! But I’d find you again.
And honestly, I’m dubious they’ll actually allow migration.
Until then, I’ll use Threads to spread the good word on the Fediverse!
@SeeJayEmm I hope so, that’s a big miss on Lemmy right now.
Need to be able to migrate accounts & communities ASAP.
