Yes, yes I know this is an unpopular opinion but let me give you guys an example that relates to this. You guys know email? Well if you had made an email instance and then Google made Gmail, would you guys block it? No. Just because it’s made by a big company does not mean you should block it. What if you wanted to talk to people on threads? What if you wanted more content because there is more users on there? Please don’t defederate from threads people.

    I’m against it for three reasons

    1. Instagram owned by Mark Zuckerberg, was exposed for having an algorithm that pushed pedophilia
    2. he’s obviously doing it to collect our data and sell it to data collection companies for profit
    3. just like Facebook he wants to eventually control the entire fediverse and remove stuff that he doesn’t like, which is usually politically and monetarily motivated
    4. this reason is satire, but Mark Zuckerberg is a lizard person

        Even though im an admin i have zero tech experience. I will say this, I suggest perhaps finding some sort of way to limit his exposure to any and all data, also any instances demanding emails. Run while you still can
