I try to not use my title too much but in response to Zuck's recent speech:

As Queen of the Fediverse I officially declare Threads EXILED from our land

You are not welcome here, get the fuck out

Als Antwort auf Christine Lemmer-Webber

(JUST IN CASE YOU DIDN'T KNOW I don't actually consider myself Queen of the Fediverse this is a long-running joke because people started calling me that)

Meta, 5 years ago: "Boo hoo you gotta let us control all the social medias you couldn't trust anyone else to do it. Please regulate us, please make regulations that literally only we could comply with"

Meta 2 years ago: "Oh we're gonna join the fediverse"

Meta today: "We're 4chan now. We can't let Elon Musk have all the 4chan fun"

Get them outta here GET THEM OUT

I admit I have been rather satisfied with my instance's firm stand on blocking interop with threads. (And bluesky, which is inconvenient but from an ethical standpoint I'm 100% good with)

This was brought to my attention by the lovely Yaseen, but evidently Facebook Chat has renamed their trans- and enby-themed chat options to 'harmless' variants. Co-opting the flags and taking them from our community. Isn't corporate pride great?

To quote Tailsteak, Facebook is for toy cows and racist uncles, and it's clear that's only intensified since. I see absolutely zero benefit in federating with them -- less than zero, really. It'd be a massive drain on moderators who've done this for a community project, and would only cause harm.

If you’ve not seen it, I suggest finding the video of Roger Waters responding to Zuckerberg’s request to the right to use Another Brick in the Wall. It’s very theraputic.

This is the text of the story.. but really the video does some justice:

BTW, I try not to even use the hijacked term /threads/. I say FBthreads™ to clearly distinguish that garbage from a generic term we use in everyday language without intent to refer to a fiefdom.

At the same time, I see no problem with grouping Cloudflared Mastodon and Lemmy nodes with FBthreads™, because it’s all centralised in exclusive corporate walled gardens. All such enshitified networks should be condemned together.

Als Antwort auf Christine Lemmer-Webber

it has always been time for an Isolate Threads campaign.

Or do you mean airgapping the company physically and not just a #fedipact kind of thing

Als Antwort auf Davey

@davey_cakes mainly I just wanted to indicate that by explicitly saying that transpobia and racism is now allowed, #fedipact is now the same level of concern that Isolate Gab was

"Meta may NOT, in fact, have a little ActivityPub, as a treat"

Or as a regulatory fig leaf to gain Threads access to the EU market. (Which is what they did...)

Threads is deemed "interoperable" because of us. Oops.

Als Antwort auf Christine Lemmer-Webber

Mark Zuckerburg: Are you the Queen of the Fediverse?

Christine: You say that I am.

Als Antwort auf Christine Lemmer-Webber

Given that 'everyone calls me the monarch' is the only way to test if someone is a monarch, you may have little choice in the current location (or existence) of the crown, your majesty.
Als Antwort auf 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐮

Ah right thank you @kingu

Ahem @zuck as co-author/co-editor of the W3C ActivityPub specification you are officially exiled from our land

You are not welcome on the Fediverse

Opening the door to racism and transphobia to kneel at the throne of Donald Trump is unforgiveable

Get out of here, go, and do not return

@django yeah sorry, I replied too quickly, I found it
Als Antwort auf Christine Lemmer-Webber

forgive me for being an idiot, but it seems like this is a small step in the right direction?
From what I’ve seen, the *current* Meta stance is to allow alt-right views and shadowban left-leaning accounts. The other thing he mentioned was removal of foreign intelligence bots, which from what I’ve seen mainly target antifascist posts (yuumei art’s protest pieces come to mind).
Is there anything I’m missing?
Als Antwort auf Eri

@slink Did you actually watch the same video where he said that the election of Trump is an indicator that it's time to prioritize allowing more right-leaning speech and that they're going to remove restrictions on transphobic and racist content?

Because that's the video *I* watched. Which one did you watch? facebook.com/zuck/videos/15253…

Zuck, noun: also verb: The product or action of the tracking algorithms that shape an Internet user's experience and online self, in particular on social media platforms like Facebook; derived from Zuckerberg, the last name of the founder of Facebook.

Sample usage: "The zuck is deep here." "l've been zucked"

I uninstalled Threads today. Was following for a few months. Seems like a lot of whining christians.
Als Antwort auf Christine Lemmer-Webber

Let us rightfully condemn and ridicule Zuckerberg shit ,but insure we all boycott all his operations and any corporations that support them. His corporations main value comes from ad revenues from his platform users: deny.
Als Antwort auf snahn ip

incase anyone is wondering, I'm saying that satirically.. or something. ^>^ cuz noone should try to tell someone else where they can or can't hangout on the free web. ^>^ it's open and welcome for everyone... Left, right, center, top or power bottom.
Als Antwort auf snahn ip

@sn0n I can tell Zuck he's not welcome on the fediverse. Look, I am doing so right now

Heck if you believe in my free speech you should believe in my free speech to tell Zuck to GTFO

Als Antwort auf Christine Lemmer-Webber

I'm always torn on this. Blocking large node can be detrimental to some users. For example, I've heard multiple times people from marginalised groups sticking to larger org platforms because there are disavantages to only use Mastodon. I wish we could have a more granular solution but I also understand the complexity of the problem.
Als Antwort auf Christine Lemmer-Webber

I must have missed the point when fact checking became censorship - still you have to have some consideration for the Eye of Sauron - if 77 million people can’t tell their ass from a hole in the ground - why bother - just pocket the money and run.
