Can I make a rule for my community that threads users will be banned?
If .world doesn't defederate and threads users find their way into my community, I want to ban any that interact. Using anything meta related is a fundamental violation of the values I hold for using FOSS and the fediverse.
Would doing so violate the guidelines? I don't see anything suggesting it would, but want to check.

I kind of agree with you here.

I can't really articulate why I have a bad feeling about Threads but I just do. It's owned by Meta which we know is just about as far on the opposite end of the spectrum as you can get from decentralization. They're a HUGE corporation.

I just feel like I don't want them anywhere near places like Lemmy because I feel like they're going to try and ruin it, because they can't profit off of decentralization.

Again, I'm not educated enough about this stuff to know HOW exactly they would do that, but I just know I like the idea of moving away from corporations and towards the fediverse, and I'm nervous about what will happen if corporations try to move into that space.

The tactics are known and proven. Your gut is correct.

damn i can't believe that's actually a real thing
