@wjmaggos TBH I get the reactions to some extent, I mean people have EVERY reason to hate Meta. But when they demand everyone else to block them too, it seems like they think this would hurt Meta. I'm all for hurting Meta's interests, but I don't think this holds any truth, given the scale of things. When Threads' federation was announced, many people said that Meta will rely on content from fedi to fill up their "empty" platform. Then Threads got 100 million subscribers almost instantly, and they still don't serve content from fedi. This "crusade" means nothing to Meta. What hurts them is what makes them lose users.
Again, hurting Meta is a noble cause, but all this anger is misfocused and won't achieve anything. Except from making things more hostile and killing the vibe here. In a sense, this might push some people over to Threads, if anything.
