I saw in the posts recently how Metas thread grew rapidly in a span of just a day. I understand that since threads posts a privacy nightmare (no surprises there) I’m leaning towards de-federating with them.

But I am also cautiously excited about the massive amount of content if we federated instead.

So for purposes of discussion, may I know the pros and cons of federating with threads?

    This much is true, I concede that. It’s highly likely they’re farming this very thread as we speak- the vacuum covers all, and Zuck has clearly been thinking about the fediverse for quite some time. However it’s of limited use to feed the other points when they can’t use the data to develop direct connections with their own internal users via direct interactions.

    Also you doubleposted by accident.
