I'm happy for you, or sorry that happened.

You are infinitely safer interacting with a Threads user here than by actually using Threads itself.

You should not be interacting with Threads. No one should be, and you should not legitimize it's use.

You will not convince people to leave threads by letting them stay on threads and still talk to you.

@FfaerieOxide people hate Facebook. Or Meta. They hate their policy, they hate how their services (don't) work, yet they stay there because everyone is there. If they see people that are not there, I think they are more likely to make the switch (not that will do, but more likely).
not legitimize it's use
I never said that people should use Threads to join the Fediverse. I said that people who already use Threads can be more easily convinced to join this place.
But if you think a good chunk of people will just randomly browse the web, stumble upon these weird sites called kbin.social or libranet.de and understand how they work from the get-go, then I have bad news for you.
That is, unless you just feel better staying in a cloister castle anyway.
In which case, you should understand that not anyone wants this. 🙂

  I agree; people rightly hate facebook and meta

  How will you convince them if they can get everything the fediverse offers without leaving Threads?

    @FfaerieOxide Tell them to join the Fediverse from the Fediverse 😀
    Like, simply, if you tell them that they can access all the content they want on Threads (because that's why they're there), while not being there, and also see it demoed from you, the person already on the non-Meta Fediverse, they are more likely to make the switch, especially if they encounter any regular issue like being wrongly banned or having network issues.
    Hell, even if they create backup accounts here, it's still a partial win for us - they can switch back any time back and forth and see what fits them better. ;)
