Its just free speech that nobody has to listen to, right? Lemmy has no ads anyways so what if there's some nonsense mixed in? I doubt it would outnumber the people who want good content to prevail.
This would be the strongest reason for instance admins to not let Threads to federate with their instances.
ah, great /s
anyways fuck whoever federates with threads
Title could easily be changed to "Facebook and Instagram users move to Threads" and it would mean the same thing.
In other news, idiots exist everywhere. The interesting part will come when meta/threads responds to this.
They flock everywhere that will have them. There are definitely far-right shitstains on every platform, even this one. They're like a gas and expand to take up whatever volume they're in, or in this case, that doesn't ban them. Simply "flocking" to a platform isn't really an indictment.
Now where they stay, that's a different matter.
When Stinky Elon took over twitter, I kept hearing everyone complain about all the bigots on there. But I haven't seen any bigots on there. Why? Because I'm not following any of them and I've never gone looking for them
They existed far before elon, libs of tiktok was put on a do not take action list by the former admin. Secondly the algrithum ensured I always knew hate accounts existed.
My level of surprise concerning threads hasn’t changed after reading this :)
Of course they are.
Welp.
There will be bad actors of all descriptions on all platforms. The key is how effectively they are dealt with. We'll see on that.
Who would have thought this would happen? 😱
/s
Maybe I should block Threads on my instance...? Let's see how this goes..
