While i think more people learning of the fediverse could be potentialy beneficial, I also think that we should un-federate with them since corporations are the biggest danger to it. they used EEE(Embrace,Extend,Extinguish) tactics before and they will probably use them here as well. not to mention the blatant privacy risks it will bring. I’m not the only one who thinks not de-federating with them is a bad idea I think this comment explains it better than i could have: https://lemmy.world/comment/6040940
am already leave reddit
The most important part of this imo is the fact that whatever lemmy.world does will have major consequences to the fediverse since its the largest instance by far.
lemmy.world may have an impact on lemmy, but there are a lot of much bigger mastodon instances. in fact, lemmy.world is #9, and every other instance ahead of it is mastodon (except 1 which is misskey)
Ok, I only thought in terms of lemmy in that moment. Thanks for the correction.

Leaving lemmy.world if it doesn’t defederate from threads. Fuck Meta.
several instances already did back when Threads first launched – you can check your own instance by going to
https://your.instance.name/instancesand searching forthreads.netCan we be more oblivious to marketing teams. I hope we are more accepting of PR for various IP creating positive only encouraging spaces that will ensure any honest opinions get minced and purged. I would also enjoy seeing websites like buzzfeed using the place to repost questions every few months so they have new material to write another click bait article. Also college kids who buy bulk products off alibibi and create posts pretending like they discovered this cool new thing like a lamp that puts stars on your wall while providing all the electronic safety standards the back allays of Chinese factories offer. Is it not all our responsibility to ignore these corruption’s of our spaces and ask ‘wow that’s amazing, where can I buy it’ If threads can bring us this attention I say why not.
