wow, wow, wow. one whole year of fedipact. a solid twelve months of resistance against meta's corporate bullshit. fuck yeah

how long until threads threatens to or actually does start blocking mastodon.social for allowing nudity?

would dot social bend the knee in that scenario and change their policy? probably

The Threads bonus is an invite-only bonus program that lets you earn money on your Threads content... Based on the performance [and] number of posts you create.

is this really the vibe we want them bringing to the fediverse???

“You could imagine an extension to the protocol eventually — of saying like, ‘I want to support micropayments,’ or … like, ‘hey, feel free to show me ads, if that supports you.’ Kind of like a way for you to self-label or self-opt-in. That would be great,” Cottle noted, speaking casually. Whether or not Meta would find a way to get a cut of those micropayments, of course, remains to be seen.

yes this is a re-upload lmao

@nilaypatel -- editor-in-chief of @theverge -- thinks there aren't girls on the fediverse 😂

boost this if you're a girl on the fediverse to scare him lmao

me, vanta, trans enby girl polyam lesbian gender terrorist: "people should block threads because it will make fedi unsafe for queer people"

the verge, for some reason: "OBVIOUSLY it's a bunch of NERD BOYS trying to keep the WOMEN out"

@tokyo_0 @vantablack @adam @bixfrankonis @FediTips i am not in charge of https://fedipact.veganism.social you want @nm

we are now at 767 signatures and counting!!!!!

that's seven hundred and sixty-seven instance admins and mods who've decided to defederate the shit outta threads and take a stand against meta!!!!!!!!!!

:FediPact:

#FediPact #meta #threads

"federating with threads is still worth it!"

it's like... tell me you give less than zero fucks about trans people without telling me you give less than zero fucks about trans people lol

i think the whole framing of fedipact and the meta surrounding blocking threads as being "mere drama" is really fucking annoying

like... this might just be a small inconvenience to you, but this is a matter of SAFETY for us. it's about keeping our communities free from harm, both in the short and long term

brushing it aside as simple internet drama just shows you don't really give a fuck about what happens to us

#FediPact #meta #threads

i think the most annoying thing about this whole discourse is that people refuse to judge threads by the standard of any other fedi instance

like if a mastodon instance got set up and federated right now and it allowed the shit threads allowed it'd be widely defederated IMMEDIATELY

there are accounts literally CALLING FOR THE DEATHS OF QUEER PEOPLE on there right fucking now

the only reason people are even willing to give them a chance is because it's a big corpo, but that should only be reason to give them less of one lmao. especially considering meta's history in particular

don't let them lower the bar for moderation standards here

#FediPact #meta #threads #FediForum

why should we federate with them when...

"extreme anti-trans hate content remains widespread across instagram, facebook, and threads. characterized by fear-mongering, lies, conspiracy theories, dehumanizing tropes, and violent rhetoric, these posts — many by high-follower accounts — aim to boost engagement, generate revenue, and seed hateful narratives about trans, nonbinary, and gender non-conforming people. these accounts profit from such hate, and so does meta and its shareholders"

1. fedipact signatures are vetted and added manually whenever i feel up to it, give me time lmao

2. messaging me on my main account and asking me to add you IS NOT A SIGNATURE. i will do my best to bookmark it and try to remember, but i will probably forget. PLEASE use the cryptpad form unless you are literally unable to. i try to keep fedipact stuff separated from my regular account because it stresses me out lol

#FediPact #meta #threads

1. it's meta

2. it's meta

3. IT'S META

#FediPact #meta #threads

it's such a low godddamn bar to clear

and yet, by and large, the fediverse is the only major social media platform that actually manages to do this (the decent sections of it, at least)

why? well, here's the big secret: BECAUSE WE DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT PROFIT

big companies allow nazis to fester on their services because it makes them money, and here we're not beholden to such a corrupting influence. that's kinda the entire point

#FediPact #meta #threads

what if i signed up for the next FediForum to talk about FediPact and why people should defederate threads lmao

i think there'll be one more this year before threads fully federates

that would be funny probably

some accessibility concerns with https://fedipact.online have been brought to my attention and i'm working on addressing them. more specifically, the readability of the color contrast and the animations

i wanna put a button on there that flips the text and background colors, making it hot pink on black, and disables the animated floating hearts (they're already disabled if the user has "reduced motion" on)

i just... don't have the web design skills necessary to do so lol. BUT someone else is working on it!!! so it should be fixed and better soonsies

thanks to everyone who pointed this out :heart_cyber_pink:
