I joined this instance because I like what SDF does as an organization. It's cool that they offer so many public services that anyone can use if they follow the rules. Supposing Threads ever joins the Fediverse, I'd hope SDF keeps them around as long as it's not harming SDF users.
@OneCardboardBox @scroll_responsibly I feel the exact same way. I hope that defederation is saved for a last resort. I have friends and family who I would still like to follow, and Threads (riding on top of Instagram) could be a really helpful way to bridge that gap in a user-friendly way.
Me too. I've tried to get friends and family to join the fediverse, but they won't, because they're happy with Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. I think they might join Threads though if there's a huge critical mass of people on there. I would like a way to interact with them on social media without logging onto Facebook or Instagram myself.
