Update regarding Meta/Threads:

We hear that the Threads app is coming July 6th.
It will at first not support ActivityPub, so it can't talk to Mastodon yet. That will be added later.

We're very much in agreement with @tchambers , see timothychambers.net/2023/07/03
As he said: ““Watching Like A hawk, with our fingers on the block button.” We will NOT be pre-emptively taking a “Fediblock as a Frist Strike” position.”

www.timothychambers.net · Instagram Threads and the Fediverse (Part 4)As Meta’s new App - now officially confirmed as “Threads” - has a near-term launch date of July 6th, wanted to restate that Indieweb.social will be taking the same position as almost all mid-sized and large-sized servers and will be “Watching Like a Hawk, with our Fingers Over the Block Button.” We will NOT be pre-emptively taking a “Fediblock as a Frist Strike” position. For reasons I listed here: www.timothychambers.net/2023/06/2…

@mwadmin @tchambers Different Mastodon instances, different target demographics and different priorities, no wukkas! (That's Australian for bee~ no, Australian for "no worries". That ad just sticks…)

Other instances, more specifically requiring proactive defensive action, other outcomes. An alternative perspective: topspicy.social/@nikki/1106551 (this showing the receipts as to announced data collection on Meta's side, and their history of using that data in bad faith)

Top Spicy CrewNikki (@nikki@topspicy.social)Attached: 1 image Folk have asked if topspicy.social will federate with meta or not. This is what meta want to track if you use their threads app. They have a history of building profiles on folk who aren't signed up to their products through all their embedded tracking in all the websites their shit touches. They can shove it up their metahole.

@mwadmin @tchambers I might be late to the party here, and I'd be happy to support this strategy... can someone point to any time this response to EEE has worked?

@SouthFresh @mwadmin

Podcasting versus closed non-RSS formats, Linux vs Windows NT, PHP versus Active Server pages, SVF versus Silverlight, Java withstood Microsoft versions of JVM, etc. Way more success stories than cases where EEE worked.

@tchambers @mwadmin thank you very much for the examples!

@mwadmin @tchambers I have already heard of this and I'm trying to see if there is anything stating what the Mastodon.social admins think in regards to Meta/Threads.
