I know there’s a ton of skepticism about Meta entering the fediverse — it’s completely understandable,” Cottle says. “I do want to kind of make a plea that I think everyone on the team has really good intentions. We really want to be a good member of the community and give people the ability to experience what the fediverse is.”
Your intentions mean exactly nothing when you’re being paid by Zuckerberg.
It also doesn’t actually matter what you intend, because the problem isn’t just what the platform can do, it’s about Meta being in this space and trying to stake a claim in it. We came here to escape you. Go the fuck away.
Their intentions don’t matter. Meta’s only intention is make line go up. They will either consume or extinguish the fediverse with the rest of the corps. I’ll be leaving lemmy.world the minute thread federates. I’m just gonna be a lazy ass until then.
I thought I understood lemmy.world’s position several months ago was to not federate with Threads. This was the vocal position of many instances. Has this changed?
I… Don’t think lemmy.world said it. I think they took more of a “wait and see” approach, in contrast to most other instances. Please someone correct me if I’m wrong.
I don’t get these people. They knowingly chose to work for Meta after everything that company’s done. You don’t get to pretend you’re the good guy anymore. They’re by far the most evil big tech company on the planet and that says a fucking lot when you’re up against MS, Oracle, Google and Apple
At a very desperate time in my life I worked for Comcast. Everytime something bad happens to me now I know I deserve it and that it is karma coming back to me.
I’m not a fan of Meta and I don’t want to join Threads. But there may be some people over there I would like to follow. At least on Mastodon, we can block any instance we choose to manually. I hate when instances make the decision for me.
Defederation should be a last resort when there are so many options here for people to tailor their own feeds.

Right? I don’t care what their intentions are, if they continue to house hate groups, their “intentions” count for exactly nothing

Maybe the engineering team has good intentions, but Zuck and his Fucks surely don’t.
I don’t believe for a second that any of them have good intentions.
