   #Admin #IndiewebSocial #Threads

   IMPORTANT: New Policy... A few days ago, I expressed concern over Meta’s new fact-checking and content moderation policies. When Threads announced its move to the Fedi over a year ago, we chose not to take preemptive action. Instead, we saw that we had all the tools needed for proportional responses to potential threats to keep our folks safe. And as we stated then, we would treat Threads.net like any other Fediverse server.

     Although we haven’t received any moderation tickets from Threads users, not a single ticket, Meta’s updated content policy changes are, in our view, an action that by itself warrants a server level response.

     @tchambers I think this is the sensible take, at least for the time being because as you said, limiting instead of blocking allows for individual choice instead of slamming down the ban hammer for everyone whether they like it or not. Most people aren’t on Masto/Fedi but may be on Threads while the other, more likelier option than switching to the Fedi is to jump to Bluesky which doesn’t federate with this place without a bridge.
