    I’m not personally in favor of preemptively blocking threads on my instance and I don’t find the EEE argument at all convincing in this case. But other instances doing that is no problem at all, it’s fine!

      I’m also in favor of remaining defeated, but I certainly understand it’s a big risk. EEE is a real threat. On the other hand, something like Threads is the fast track to mainstreaming the Fediverse and really advancing us away from dependence on big tech

      Big risk, big reward. The deciding factor for me is when on the fence I’d rather be inclusive. Creating a big fight against something I’m a bit skeptical of just isn’t worth it.

        If it was literally any other company I’d be much more willing to embrace it.

        But Meta? Nah, they’re too hellbent on a social media monopoly to consider a good thing.

        You’re only a bit skeptical of Meta?

        After all the dodgy shit they’ve done for 20 years and you’re only a bit skeptical?
