It's quite disarming, isn't it?
But the nice happy guys coding the thing now are not the ones who are going to make the decisions later which will bring about the extend + extinguish phases, the ads, the crypto or whatever form the enshittification takes.

That means you can interact with your friends on threads without using their app and seeing their ads. Itâs a big win.

Until meta starts to slowly block small instances and we end up with the next email. Technically federated, but controlled by a few large corporations that dictates the block lists. Let us block them first so we get to define what the fediverse should look like, not them.

Then weâre back to ActivityPub as it is now. I hardly see Mastodon people jumping to threads. And governments might prefer having their own instance.

I want to be a good enough friend to encourage my friends to stay away from Meta. I donât want to enable them.
