Brilliant, all the propaganda about “join us, the fediverse is like email” gone to shit. More like “it’s like email, but if you email ends with @hotmail.com we will block your messages”.
I agree with the sentiment, not with these actions, instead of giving meta users a way to break free, we built a wall between us and them, who have way more content, because we’re afraid of Zuck stealing our data, which is public and he already done.
It’s really interesting to see the two sides of the coin. People are extremely passionate on both sides. I didn’t think people on the side of “in favor of federating with Threads” were just as passionate.
But we are making the decision together. Look at all the conversations we’re having. Your confusing “not having a choice” with “learning to except majority opinion”
Trust me, the people in charge of the instances aren’t defederating because of their personal opinion. They are listening to us and making choices on what the majority feels.
I didn’t say “not have a choice” though. I said people are likely tired of others making the choice for them, whether it be minority or majority. Especially when individual choice is possible.

I think most people are tired of others making choices for them, rather than explicitly being in favor of federating with Threads.

It’s not about stealing data, it’s about not letting Zuck gain influence and control of the fediverse.
