Seeing as this conversation is going on everywhere right now, what’s the approach to Meta going to be here on UK? Personally I’m all for defederation as soon as possible, what does everyone else think?

    Given the success of Threads, and Reddit’s current problems, I think there is a good chance that Meta are already working on a Reddit killer, based on ActivityPub. Threads membership could easily be extended to this new app, and all of a sudden there is a lemmy instance with 100 of millions of users, spewing forth all their unmoderated content to anything that is federated. The rest of the fediverse would be absolutely swamped. Gone will be lemmy as we know and love it.
