   @thomas @binarytango I say this to all instance admins — we are guests in your homes. Each of you should and will do what you believe to be in your own instances’ best interests. Personally I believe that attempting to isolate ourselves from capitalist social media (as opposed to finding some uneasy way to coexist with it while blocking only actual abuse) is short-sighted and doomed to fail. Offering a superior experience to what Threads can, is the way.

     Now that the first official, federated connection from a Fediverse account to a single (!) Meta threads.net account has been made, the Threads topic is boiling up again.

     Many of us Fediverse citizens see this as an opportunity for the Fediverse to gain in importance.

     At least as many are sceptical about whether we should be exchanging data with Threads at all.

     As an instance admin, I'm worried about making a decision that could alienate users on both sides. 😓 🧵
