It get’s people talking about the topic, in most cases it really doesn’t do much but in some it can disrupt peoples days that much they feel they have to do something about it and the only way to stop most protests are to think about what they are trying to ask for and try and give it to them.

I would love to see what your vault looks like and how you lay it out as I love using Obsidian as a sort of database.

So like I said, if people don’t like what they add, we just won’t add it. Why should we bend over backwards, also EEE is a Microsoft thing more than anything. It won’t kill decentralisation it would just prove that companies like that are shit.

So how would they take PixelFed, Mastodon, Lemmy & Kbin / Mbin? They can only try add a feature and if the rest of the Fediverse doesn’t like it, they won’t add it to there own platforms,

Yeah and I’m not going to stop using my instance I love it to much, Maybe I will boot up my own personal one if anything. Just glad more people will hopefully understand and can use the Fediverse

Less of a public figure than Zuck I was meant to say. I really do hope they have a goodish intent and I’m sure the Fediverse will keep on going with or without META, just really hope to see more of a general audience join us on the Fediverse

Yes Mbin fixed this, my instance runs a version of Mbin and I love it, sad we are missing a few things from Kbin but the quality is better in the end. I’ll have to look at more Lemmy.world communities as that seems to be where most people end up

@Zak@lemmy.world It would make sense for him to be but I guess it might be easier to use accounts that are not so much public knowledge like @mosseri@threads.net rather than the head of META themselves. Really hope if it goes well they will possibly even think about doing the same with there other platforms.

Thank you

That’s fair enough, I know that I want to see smaller communities to grow such as ones for certain games and creators. Making it into a place not only for Techy people is what the Fediverse needs to grow to wider audiences.

Yes if certain instances don’t like Threads they can de-federate from it, and I’m sure a few will, Personally I think it should be down to user choice as the users on Threads aren’t to bad it’s the company that is.

The problem is there’s only so far that the general userbase will grow without the fall off big tech, the only one that is close to falling is X formally Twitter and I don’t think most people want those sorts of people on here, not yet at least.

Sure you might be right in the way of the Fediverse growing but either way big tech is goanna want to join the Fediverse sooner or later, we might as well try and get as many users to jump the Big Tech ship and move to these platforms.

Yes I get that but the only way people will feel like they can move across is by other bigger ‘projects’ being made like Threads that integrate and teach people the basics of the Fediverse before they possibly push off to Mastodon, Lemmy, Kbin, PixelFed, Ext.

This is a good step even if the people behind it are terrible hopefully having people interact with other communities will push people to move over to them instead of being in control of META or other big companies.

Nice I’ll have to check GTA Online out again in the near future.

Is it only for Consoles or is it also for PC?

Does it do it automatically or do you have to request from the admins of the instance?

Yeah but rather it not become a breading ground for people like that with Elon’s plans on adding dating into the mix.

I’m just glad we will be able to interact with those few people that won’t use the rest of the Fediverse but stay on Threads.

The only benefit is that the Fediverse will have potentially more users as well as companies possibly following in METAs steps and integrating ActivityPub. This is a beneficial step for the internet but only time will tell how it actually plays out.

Yeah it’s one of the many reasons I use Kbin / Mbin over Lemmy. Really hope features like that come to Lemmy in the future.
