Just read that lemmy.ml just did. What’s our status on this?

56 points

The admin of lemmy.world, @ruud@lemmy.world has voiced on Mastodon.world that we are not going to defederate from Threads just yet. He wants to “wait and see”, which of course offers mixed feelings from folks.

It’s worth noting that Individuals can block a domain if they see fit.

So if your server admin is not willing to defederate from threads.net, you can do it yourself for your account.

I thought Lemmy didn’t have this feature yet. Can’t we only block individual communities right now unless we are an admin?

How do Lemmy.world users feel about the content they make being displayed next to ads on Threads? If that’s the only bad thing Threads does, then it would be a best case scenario. Would Lemmy.world users be ok with Facebook monetizing the content they make on Lemmy.world?

Thank God, I was starting to miss drama since getting off of Reddit

Good news is that if lemmy.world doesn’t choose to defed Threads, all you have to do is migrate to another instance which does! One of the better benefits of this over Reddit.

Apart from lemmy.ml, lemm.ee seems to be going in that direction as well.

Is Lemm.ee performant now? I used it for a bit and it was borderline unusable because it was so slow and overloaded.

They made a post a week or two back saying they did infra stuff and everything is running better. Haven’t had any issues.

ml is the Tankies instance. So I’d personally avoid that one. I’ll keep an eye on lemm.ee though.

I thought lemmygrad.ml was the tankies.

A lot of lemmy’s content is on Lemmy.world, but I probably would stop using it.

There’s no easy way to transfer a community you created to another instance, right? Disappointing to see that I might have to start from scratch. Definitely not sticking around in this instance or donating to them anymore if they federate with threads.

I took a quick peek. One thing I noticed: For my Android phone, the Threads app is 74MB. Compare that to two for Jerboa and 2.57MB for Mastodon. Hmmm, I wonder where that extra 74MB comes from…

I wonder what all that extra bloat does… Meta’s not telling us…
