Threads seems to be beginning to test ActivityPub federation, and since Kbin can be used for microblogging, this affects kbin.social. What are your thoughts on federating or defederating with them?

    I mean fuck, how many of us left Reddit for their bullshit? Inviting Meta into the mix is an even worse proposition.

      This is nothing like what I left Reddit over.

      Nobody is “inviting” Meta in, ActivityPub is an open protocol. They can come in without any invitation. Being closed is what I left Reddit over. Closing the Fediverse to Meta would be more like the bullshit I left Reddit over.
