kbin should correct its "+18" label to be "18+" ( kbin.social )
The first few times I saw "+18", I didn't even know what it meant because it was backwards and the threads weren't particularly NSFW.

Can we please remember to talk about things on the fediverse besides the fediverse itself? ( kbin.social )
Having spent a lot of time on Mastodon... There are tons of people there talking about federated and self-hosted services, software freedom, censorship, encryption, tech regulation... A very narrow range of topics directly surrounding the fediverse get a lot of attention....

So, I guess Threads is officially spyware... Not at all shocked, but, Jesus that's a lot of data they're wanting. ( media.kbin.social )
Is there any kbin instance that is seriously considering defederating Meta/Threads? ( kbin.social )
I've checked the fedipact signatories, but they all seem to be lemmy instances.

How I anticipate Meta's EEE strategy to play out. ( kbin.social )
Here's my prediction, but I'd like others to contribute their predictions as well. I think it's important that we make ourselves aware of signs before they start showing, and that we have a record to point to if things play out exactly as we predict....

Another Threads prediction - The modern EEE version ( kbin.social )
Everyone seems to be pointing to the Microsoft EEE model without explaining how it has changed since the 90s. Here's what it will look like in today's tech climate. (I forgot to mention in this wall of text that there will probably be a name change or two. Especially if there's a major controversy.)...

From the CEO of Mastodon: What to know about Threads ( blog.joinmastodon.org )
There’s been a lot of speculation around what Threads will be and what it means for Mastodon. We’ve put together some of the most common questions and our responses based on what was launched today.

Threads may actually hinder widespread adoption of the Fediverse ( kbin.social )
Okay, so right now government agencies, schools, and small business often use Facebook or Twitter for their web presence rather than start their own websites. For a few days there, while Twitter had the login-wall up and was rate-limiting, we had some serious problems wtih Amber Alerts, weather notices, safety notices and other...

Question: Why are some instances defederating instances which don't sign the fedipact? ( kbin.social )
Something I don't understand currently about the whole Meta/Threads debacle is why I'm seeing talk about instances which choose to federate with Threads themselves being defederated. I have an account on mastodon.social, one of the instances which has not signed the fedipact, and I've had people from other instances warn me that...
