  • Only real threats of Threads federation are EEE and server overload. Not the people from there or privacy. If someone wants to see some content you don’t want to see, like some opinion you don’t like, they should be able to see it. I don’t understand why there would be such list, it would be pure censorship and waste of time. I have heard Threads has a pretty good moderation, so that solves this problem anyway.

    I don’t get what would defederating with Facebook-federated instances gives you, though.





  • I think that for Lemmy and Linux the problem is actually in the people using it. Without people using it, they won’t be many posts/good software support. Without the posts/support there won’t be many users. It’s not some UI being different, or anything else. It’s the main issue. When you see lemmy.world frontpage (All, not Local), there are 15 threads about Reddit and Lemmy, 2 about Twitter limits and the rest is about tech. Meanwhile, on r/popular you have variety of communities, still mostly memes and videos but there are also other posts.

    It’s more about reddit that reddit is. You can’t make it long-term with this type of content. On other instances it’s more bearable, but it’s still not enough to keep people here.
