It should come as no surprise that the lemmy.ml [http://lemmy.ml] admin team
took about 2 minutes to decide to pre-emptively block threats / Meta. Their
transparent and opportunistic scheme to commodify the fediverse and it’s users
will not be allowed to proceed. We strongly encourage other instance
administrators to do the same, given the grave threat they pose to the
fediverse.
I don’t really get this. I see people were worried about Threads app/web app permissions (which I signed up and no permissions were granted immediately beyond notifications). Regardless, wouldn’t staying federated with threads.net allow everyone to interact with them all from the more reasonably permissioned app of their choice, like Jerboa?
It’s more like just in case of legal issue. Big corporations tends to declare more than what they actually use in “Data Safety/Privacy” just to say they consent in court. It doesn’t mean they collect or use all the things they declared.

If this is possible it would be great. But I don’t think meta would allow that for long, not unlike reddit killing third party apps.
it might take a few years in my opinion, but I believe you have a point
