While I agreed those who do not want federation with Threads should leave (me included), lemmy.world has not bent any knee. The admin is taking a wait and see approach, and willing to block if it turns out bad

There are under the hood data that is not displayed on the site which they can scrap. FB would be broke if they only rely on the FB posts alone without all the tracking everywhere. Even your movement on the screen or where you pause on the page are tracked.

So no they dont get all the data unless we federate them.

Lovely resource to help people decide for themselves

At least governments/any essential services around the world should

Its your choice as instance owner to do that

Visit https://fedipact.online/ to see a list of instance owners who will defederate their instance from Threads

Heads up: its a long list

Thats the nice thing about fediverse. People with different opinions can co-exist and they have freedom to choose what they want

Big enough is nice but I’d rather have a small community without anything to do with the big tech.

I doubt people joining small instances would miss any content from FB/Instagram/Threads/Twitter

The content on reddit is huge but I cut the tie and happier with Lemmy.

Great heads up

I just don’t get why people would join SOCIAL media if they don’t want to their posts public. Its like having a group meeting in the middle of a public square and complain people saw them

Maybe they should just use discord or or private communities instead
