If you’re on mastodon.social, I would highly recommend that you switch to a different server that protects its people instead of exposing them to a well-known bad actor like Facebook/Meta via Threads.
For alternatives, see: https://fedipact.veganism.social
And remember that Mastodon is not the fediverse. The fediverse is much more than just Mastodon and definitely more so than mastodon.social and Mastodon gGmbH.
@aral yes you should probably move away from mastodon.social but not because they are federating with threats. Instead just because the server is becoming to crowded.
There is (currently) zero threat in federating with Threads (pun intended) and you can all relaxe about this a little
Eugene himself is doing a great job for the fediverse. Being open to even meta and not excluding them by principle.
Issues about moderation can and should be addressed to the threads team but please be fair.
@tgwtgs1589 Thanks, ThatGuyWithTheGreenShirt, I’m sure every vulnerable group on the fediverse can breathe easier now that you’ve set their minds at ease that it’s not a threat to your privileged self.
