Meta’s Twitter alternative promises that it will work with decentralized platforms, giving you greater control of your data. You can hold the company to that—if you don’t sign up.
Bullshit. Threads’ algorithm will severely deprioritize external posts. It already heavily favors sponsored instagram accounts as is. You’re not being smart by putting porn on Threads through a Mastodon instance. Their AI will take whatever you have that’s tame and refuse to show what’s dirty. And if you do too much dirty, well, being shadowbanned on Instagram is a fucking super common story as is.
All this idea achieves is doing content charity for Facebook of all things. Defederate. It’s the only correct move.
