Hot Take: The toxic attitude towards Threads (and anything not part of the Fediverse) is driving me away from Lemmy (murray.social)

I unsubscribed from the Fediverse community because I just couldn't take the constant hate and complaining. Now I'm seeing it in all of the general technology communities. I get that a lot of people have major issues with Meta and Threads, but I'm seriously tired of it taking over my feed. Personally, I enjoy Threads. I also use Mastodon, but the reality is there's a lot of groups of people who aren't on Mastodon, and Threads has given me a way to follow them again. That's something I'm grateful for.

I respect your right to your opinion but understand the reason why you're seeing a lot on the fediverse about threads. We all have our own opinions, and many of us don't trust Meta, and trust their intentions relating to ActivtyPub even less. So, you're seeing a lot about it because it's a point of concern, it isn't just a hate band wagon meant to make you feel guilty for enjoying threads.

Use what you want and worry less about other people's opinion. If you have no problem, and you find threads to be helpful, then go for it, no reason to grand stand on here. You're definitely not preaching to the choir on this one.
