For anyone wondering if Threads and Facebook at large will be a fine neighbor in the space and compatible with other apps/services in the fediverse: they’re already automatically hiding comments that mention Pixelfed https://mastodon.social/@dansup/112126250737482807

      Burying your head in the sand doesn’t change the fact that whatever LW does will affect all of Lemmy. They’re too big.

        That sounds like a problem for instances federated with Meta. Empathy is cool but they are not our problem.

        This is a strange response for me because de-federating is an active step on behalf of its admin, usually after a vote amongst its users, at creating a virtual boundary between the two entities. How is that burying your head in the sand? And yeah, lemmy.world is big, but aside from the obvious loss of content/users, what other effect will that have on the mass of de-federated instances?

        Uuuh no it won’t? The fact that they federate with Threads doesn’t mean that my instance does. How does it affect me?
