If this is the case, I urge EVERY instance admin across all currently federated apps to blacklist threads.

If threads is allowed to federate with these apps, it will outweigh all contributions to these apps, and when Meta eventually defederates (which they will), the vast majority of the community will be lost.

PLEASE HEED THIS WARNING!

It would be unreasonable and foolish to expect or try for 100% adoption. We're talking about humans, after all. We can defederate the fuck out of them though, cutting off both them and small Instances that attach to them. The Fediverse can then sort itself into the Zuck people and the independents.

Best possible scenario for us. All future tech giants that come into the space will simply attach to the larger Zuck version, which he will certainly come to dominate the development of. We just keep on chuggin, as a competitor.

We have to be vehemently, passionately and 100% uncompromisingly anti-Meta to get this to work though, otherwise we won't pull enough of the population.

Battle lines, folks, battle lines. This is internet war. We have someone worse than Hitler, for the time being. A personal foe that threatens us by his very proximity.
