   Zuck is a POS, but he’s pulled a blinder. His ridiculous metaverse fell through, but literally just cloning Twitter and feasting on its carcass.

   Threads will likely kill Twitter and Bluesky, and then when it starts federating, the fediverse will schism into instances that tolerate the worst people in the world federating with it and the ones that won’t.

     @goatsarah Yeah. There will probably be a software split as well, seeing as Eugen is firmly in the Meta camp. I hope we can limit the damage from this.

     @Coffee I’m already on the Eugen-free part of the fediverse.

     @Sbectol It’s apparently already full of TERFs. There will be increasing calls for defederation to instance admins.

     @goatsarah I think the schism talk is overdone. I suspect what might happen is that all the "cool kids" will be on threads so inevitably those who want to talk to them will eventually migrate to threads.

     I suspect any migration will be away from the fediverse.

     @Sbectol You honestly think genocide enablers, Facebook, are going to get moderation right this time? The people who ban you for saying “nuke the site from orbit” on an Aliens fan group? Them?

     @goatsarah ah I hadn't heard that (not going anywhere near threads) but I guess maybe they've got to find their feet on moderation.

     But you are right, if they don't then that is another good reason to defed

     @goatsarah erm. No probably not when you put it like that.

     I'm a bit out of the loop on Facebook, instagram etc, not used any of them for a long time
