Comment on 😠Meta just showed off Threads’ fediverse integration for the very first time😠
PrimalHero@kbin.social 7 months agoI am not saying we should completely isolate us. As I said I open with bridging with other protocols. But I am against fedeting with Facebook because yes we are not a pure land but in comparison to the hell that is Facebook it's better here.
Defederating with other instances can only do so much if not everyone does it

I think in this discussion people aren't putting in perspective that Facebook as a platform can suck but that doesn't mean all their userbase is terrible and ill-intentioned. There's a lot of different people there that could become good contributors in the Fediverse.
I don't think we should invite Mark Zuckerberg to get the reins of Lemmy, but if some of the artists at Instagram and Threads decide that Mastodon is worthwhile, that'd be pretty good.

No we take that into perspective but the good does not outweigh the damage that all the toxic people will do.

The Fediverse has no lack of toxic people, entire toxic instances, and we can handle them just fine.

Like I have said in other comment they nowhere near to the hell that facebook has.
Also inviting more toxic people will make situation worse not better
