    • You can follow Threads accounts after clicking through a warning.

    • People who don’t follow those same people won’t see their posts.

    • You have to manually approve followers from Threads.

    Basically, it puts Threads in quarantine, without cutting off all connections.

      I think this sounds way more reasonable. There’s will always be people like celebrities that I might want to follow, who will probably never be on mastodon or Lemmy. But I also understand the existential concerns for the future of the fediverse.

        “i am an instance admin/mod on the fediverse. by signing this pact, i hereby agree to block any instances owned by meta should they pop up on the fediverse. project92 is a real and serious threat to the health and longevity of fedi and must be fought back against at every possible opportunity”

            Or does it? Even if we assume that knowledge is attainable (which it isn’t, as demonstrated by Münchhausen’s trilemma), all knowledge is merely that of our sensory inputs. Things, such as grass, are merely models to describe those senory inputs, but can impossibly be proven correct, since there is always another model which could describe them just as well (easy example: everything is a simulation). Furthermore, there is nothing that says that there has to exist such a model which is reality in the first place.
