I’ve seen a lot of discussion about Threads around the fediverse and I believe our main instance community has had a few large discussions about it (here’s a recent one).

I didn’t see an Agora discussion post, so I’m making one.

Can we all discuss our opinions on whether we want this instance to remain federated with Threads or not and share our reasons? I’d appreciate it!

    I honestly don’t understand the benefit of defederating. The argument seems to boil down to “Meta bad”.

    The thing is, we’re not doing much to hurt Meta by defederating – they’re far too big to care. On the other hand, by silo-ing ourselves off as a tiny community, we’re actually just preventing our own potential growth.
